The Mina wrap dress is a classic wrap dress. A comfortable wardrobe staple that can be worn casually with flats, or dressed up just as easily. Mina features gathered bishop sleeves and a dropped shoulder. The bodice closes with a wrap tie front that can be tied three different ways. The skirt is flared and has hidden side seam pockets. The tie belt makes the waist adjustable.Sewing difficultyThis pattern is suitable for experienced beginners. You need to be able to make your own bias tape and sew bias bindings. The pockets are optional. Because of the relaxed style of this dress, it's easy to fit and beginner-friendly.Fabric suggestionsChoose a lightweight to midweight fabric such as cotton, linen, or blends like linen/viscose, linen/cotton, or cotton/viscose. A softer, drapier fabric will result in less volume. The ivory sample is made in a viscose, 225 gsm.Fabric usageThe layout is designed for fabric 130 cm (51”) wide. The pieces are arranged efficiently to minimize waste, but we recommend buying a little extra fabric to account for shrinkage, print alignment, or cutting adjustments.
