Wildwood Wrap Dress | Sew House Seven

Designer: Sew House Seven
Format: Paper Pattern
Size: US 00-22 or Curvy Version US 16-34. See size charts.
Difficulty: Intermediate

The Sew House Seven Wildwood Wrap Dress is a true wrap dress with a pretty detached belt that is wrapped around the body and tied together in a bow or other attractive knot. The elegance of this dress is also created by the drape of the shawl collar and enhanced by the waist and shoulder pleats. It has generous front pockets, and a slim skirt with a wide, faced hem. French seams are used to construct the upper bodice so version B looks pretty once the sleeves are rolled up. Choose a below the knee hem or longer midi-length hem.

This pattern is rated intermediate because of the skirt facing technique and French seamed shawl collar and shoulders.

Recommended Fabrics: Although it was originally designed with linen fabrics in mind, short sleeve version A also looks great in slinky and drapey silks and rayon fabrics. The dolman sleeve version B works best with more stable fabrics such as linen and cotton.
