Wrap Dress Pattern - The Assembly Line
Wrap dress features a shirt collar with a center-front button, bracelet-long sleeves, a single-button fastening on one side, and narrow tie bands on the inside of the other side. An asymmetrical A-line skirt and pockets in the side seams.
You can vary your dress by replacing the button with a tie band, skipping the collar or omitting the back bodice darts to create a looser fit through the back.
This pattern works with our collar extension pattern.
