Description
I am Octarine, a stylish wrap dress. My fluid fabric adds grace to my silhouette. I have a V-neckline and am knee-length. I have elbow-length butterfly sleeves, a button closure at the waist and can be tightened by a removable belt and pleats.
Level: Simple
Sizes: 36 to 46
Seam allowances: Included
PAPER PATTERN
All seam allowances are included in the pattern.
The pattern is enclosed in an envelope. It contains the sewing pattern along with a step-by-step illustrated explanation guide.
The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper. If you prefer a ready-to-cut pattern, try the pdf version as pieces do not overlap with each other.
