When buying fabric for a dress it not only depends on the size, but also the style. What pattern are you using? Is 60 the pattern size or the persons regular dress size? Pattern sizing runs small and is typicaly 2 sizes away from you regular size in a store. For example I am a 28 on a pattern but a 24 when I buy clothes. There can be as much as a 30% difference in material used for knee length dress compared to a floor length dress. Are there sleves and if so how long. If using a plaid printed fabric you will need to add a few yards extra to match prints. I would buy at least 9 yards for size 60.
