Wrap it!

Helena is a breezy wrap dress with a hint of tailoring. It features a deep V-neck and a built-in waistband that extends into wide belt ties to wrap around the waist and cinch the silhouette for an effortlessly elegant effect. It has a relaxed fit through the bust and hips. Shaping is achieved with pleats in the front and back bodice and soft gathers in the skirt. The neckband is grown on the front bodice. The Dolman sleeves are finished with wide sleeve bands to balance the silhouette. The pattern includes two pocket options: practical and discreet inseam pockets or large patch pockets for a casual tone.

Sizes: 34 - 60 (more information).

Samples are sewn with linen, cotton, and linen-viscose blends. For this pattern, I recommend mid-weight woven fabric with some body, such as mid-weight linen, cotton, cotton poplin, linen-cotton blends, and linen-viscose blends.
