Trend Patterns TPC29 Gathered Wrap Dress

Buy the TPC29 Gathered Wrap Dress sewing pattern from Trend Patterns. This dress has a boxy, relaxed shape that you can feel super comfortable in. The pattern has two different versions illustrated in the booklet, as well as the possibility to create two more styles by mixing up the pieces (also explained).

Version A is the wrap version, which uses self made ties to fasten. Version B has a plain gathered skirt and a single front bodice with no opening - simply chuck it on over your head. There are two different sleeve shapes, an on-trend statement collar with the option to add a frill or not, and side seam pockets.

Note: Trend Patterns are suited to a more confident maker.
