First, you need to redraw the patterns from the monitor screen or print them. You can enlarge to such an extent that they fit exactly your doll.
As you can see, you need to create one front piece, 2 folded back pieces and a sleeve pattern. For the bolero, you will need 2 back parts, two front parts and four for finishing the shelf.
First, we will sew a dress for the doll. Place the patterns on the fabric, circle and cut with a 5mm allowance. To then decorate the dress with lace, attach the front and back details to the lace fabric, outline and cut.
Now attach the shoulder seams to each other, sew them on the hands, and then on the typewriter. To prevent the lace fabric from slipping off the main fabric, first sweep two types of fabric with a basting stitch on your hands.
Also, according to the same pattern, it is necessary to sew the same details for the lining of the dress. Pin the lining fabric to the base fabric at the neckline. Then sew here on the typewriter.
To then carefully turn the dress, you need to make cuts along the edge of the neckline at the seam.
Now sew the lining to the main fabric and at the armhole. Turn the dress inside out and iron the seams. Then sew on the sides as well. To make the dress fit better, you can make two symmetrical cutouts on the back, which are located vertically.
Take a measuring tape and measure the length of the future skirt, in this case, it is 18 cm. To do this, cut out a 125 by 22 cm skirt from tulle. This includes allowances, the skirt will be fluffy and floor-length.
Sew the side of this product, then step back a little from the top, sew on a typewriter on a wide seam and collect the skirt around the waist with thread. To do this, just pull up the ends of the thread, then tie them.
To sew clothes for Paola Reina further, match the top of the dress with a tulle skirt and sew. Do not attach the lining yet.
For now, you only have a top sheer skirt. Now you need to cut out the bottom one from satin measuring 90 by 22 cm, also sew the sidewalls, tuck the bottom of the skirt, sew here. Sew the top with a large seam on a typewriter to then pull on this thread, and the top of the skirt was equal to the doll's waist.
For the skirt to be fluffy and keep its shape, make a petticoat from a rigid mesh. Cut out a blank for a skirt measuring 56 by 17 cm, you still need to cut a flounce 140 by 7 cm. Sew the sides of the skirt, also sew the side of the flounce, sew it on top, gather it on a thread and attach it to the bottom of the skirt.
So that the petticoat of the upper part does not add to the waist of the doll, you do not need to collect it on a thread, but lay the folds here.
Now sew the petticoat to the bodice, it is most convenient to do this on your hands. Grab all layers of the dress in this location.
In order for the dress to be fastened with a button, it is necessary to crochet a loop for it. To do this, pass the hook into the upper part of the dress, make the first loop, tie a column, secure it.

From the resulting blanks, you will need to sew two boleros. For the first, let's combine the front parts with the back, stitch them on the shoulders and on the sidewalls. Create a second bolero in the same way.
Fold the two pieces together, sew along the edge on the wrong side to join. Turn this vest through the holes in the armhole.
Cut out two sleeves from tulle, stepping back 3 cm from the bottom, collect on a thread. Make the second sleeve in the same way. They will have a kind of fluffy cuffs.
Sew the sleeves into the armhole. Do this with a satin ribbon that will help connect the two.
You can decorate the sleeves with roses. To do this, cut a strip of 11 by 2 cm from tulle, fold in half along the length and twist on one side to make a rose. Sew on the back to fix this flower.
If you have scraps of fabric left over, you can sew a purse. To do this, cut out a 6 by 13 cm rectangle from the canvas, cut out a round bottom, the diameter of which is 3.5 cm. Sew lace details on top of the rectangle. Connect the sides of the bag. Now sew the bottom to it. Turn the bag over to the front, sew a satin ribbon so you can tie and untie this product.
