Great wrap dress pattern

The pattern was straightforward to cut and sew, particularly with a serger. I realized I made a cutting error though, because I was trying to eke this out of a too-short piece of fabric so mine ended up being an exact mirror image. It's very flattering, fits great and I've had a lot of compliments on it, even from total strangers in the mall. Someone even remarked how the neckline doesn't gape at all and that she can't find a wrap dress that doesn't gape, which gave me the perfect opportunity to brag that I made it and the pattern is specifically designed for no gaping!

Beautiful Dress that FITS!

I teach sewing and the first thing I do is teach students how to grade and alter a pattern. So little changes need to be made with Cashmerette patterns and this one is no exception. It is designed for the curvier woman and therefore looks fantastic when wearing it. The instructions are easy to follow and the pieces are well marked. I rarely even need to "walk the seams" because the quality is top notch from the design floor to us. I have no trouble sewing the dress and when done it is a winner. I love this pattern and will use it many times to come. Looking for a staple in your wardrobe---you found it!

Perfect Wrap Dress

This was the first time ever that I did not have to alter a pattern. I only had to shorten it a little bit because of my non existing hight. The only thing missing are pockets.
