If you find yourself in the crossover 14-20 sizes and are struggling to choose between the Cascade & Cascade Curve patterns, today I will be sharing a visual comparison between them! Our diagrams will compare a size 18 from our 0-20 range shown in the outline to the size 18 in the Curve range as shown in pink.
As with all my Curve patterns, I have tried to keep the pattern as similar as possible in design, whilst taking into account a Curve fit. For Cascade specifically, the Back skirt and Pockets have been kept the same, however the Curve pattern includes a bit more ease in the waist with more wrap coverage, as well as a slightly wider and longer waistband to maintain proportion.
You will notice that the Curve front skirt also includes more length in the front to account for the slightly higher waistline in our Curve range. As a wrap skirt this pattern is quite flexible in fit and can be lightened or loosened as needed.
Both patterns come with the same awesome variations and all our tutorials and add-on ideas can be applied to either!
I hope you have found this breakdown on how to choose between Cascade and Cascade Curve helpful. If you have any questions or need any further help please let me know in the comments!
