TOP 10 WRAP DRESS SEWING PATTERNS

Wrap dresses are one of the most popular search terms in the shop thanks, to their timeless appeal and library of patterns to choose from. What sets wrap dress sewing patterns apart from the rest? The beauty of a wrap dress lies in its flattering silhouette that complements all body types.

With a wrap dress, you can easily adjust the fit to suit your shape, making it a versatile and comfortable option for any occasion. Plus, the classic design of a wrap dress never goes out of style, ensuring that your handmade creation will be a timeless wardrobe staple.

If, like me, you have thought that wrap dresses aren't your style, I urge you to browse this list before making up your mind, as I have some surprises in store. I've selected a diverse range of wrap dress styles, including those that wrap in the back, around the body, and even a jumpsuit that resembles a dress.

Friday Pattern Company Wren Wrap Dress

There's a new wrap dress on the block and this one is full of subtle details that make it stand out from the crowd. Wren wraps to create a V-neckline and features adjustable spaghetti straps and a panelled skirt with extra gathering on the sides. The pattern comes with two cup size options (B/C or C/D). The bodice is lined for a clean finish. 

Liesl + Co Chacarita Wrap Dress

The Chacarita Wrap Dress is an easy-to-sew and easy-to-wear wrap dress with a twist: the wrap is in the back instead of the front!  It features a bias-cut top for beautiful drape (the top can also be cut on grain, if desired), and the pattern includes cup sizes.

Atelier Jupe Robyn Wrap Dress

If you prefer a more classic wrap dress style, this one ticks that box. The Robyn Wrap Dress features grown on sleeves, gathers, back darts, and ties combine to create a beautiful silhouette. Plus, the skirt has a large overlap, which we can all appreciate in a wrap dress!

Madswick Ginkgo Pinafore

This is my wrap dress wild card. The wrap element goes around the body thanks to some clever pattern cutting. It's fully lined and features a dartless bodice with two neckline options. The dartless design means it can be worn back to front, tied at the sides, in the front, or in the back. It's so versatile!

Merchant & Mills Etta Dress

When this pattern hit the shelves it was an instant bestseller, and I was one of those must-make-it-immediately sewers! It is quite simply a wrap dress of dreams. The lined bodice makes for pleasing insides and the voluminous gathered skirt is quite dramatic. I love wearing my sleeveless version with t-shirts and roll necks layered underneath to make it work for all seasons.

Paper Theory Patterns Zadie Dress

The Zadie Dress is a relaxed and easy-to-wear wrap dress version of the much-loved Zadie Jumpsuit pattern. It wraps around the body and is held in place securely with a tie belt so there is no need for buttons or a zip, nor too many fitting issues as it can be tightened or loosened to suit. The dress can be sleeveless with a dropped shoulder or have wide 3/4 length sleeves, making it very versatile.

Note: You can also make a Zadie Dress using the Zadie Jumpsuit + Zadie Dress Expansion patterns if you’re a Zadie-lover already!
