BASIC PATTERN FOR A WRAP DRESS

Have you been thinking of owning a wrap dress? 
Do you keep telling your clients 'no time' because you can't make a wrap dress?

 Well that's the reason for this blog, to help solve these problems.. 

Before you read this post, you should learn how to take measurements Here

In cutting a wrap dress, the front is made of two piece, while the back is one...

Taking the front piece first,

 

From the pattern above, 

A = Burst + allowance

B = under burst + allowance

C = hip + allowance

D = shoulder width  

E = D or D - 1" (depending on your design)

F = length of gown

a = 4" - 5" ( wrap allowance)

b = 3.5"

c = 1" (shoulder slope)

d = 5" (varies)

e = distance from 5" to under burst

Taking the back piece, 

 

From the pattern above, 

A = Burst + allowance

B = under burst + allowance

C = hip + allowance

D = shoulder width  

E = D or D - 1" (depending on your design)

F = length of gown

a = 3.5"

b = 3"

c = 1" (shoulder slope)

As always, the back piece is higher than the front piece by 1.5"
