Closet Core Patterns : Elodie Wrap Dress
Elodie is a modern take on a classic wrap dress. Romantic and flowy with multiple skirt and sleeve options, it's equally appropriate at a park picnic or a special wedding.
Elodie features a softly flowing bodice, with release pleats under the bust and a dolman style sleeve. Choose between a short sleeve or longer, more formal option that ends at the elbow. The skirt is swishy and voluminous and comes in three lengths -- above the knee, midi, or maxi -- with optional patch pockets.
Women's sizes 0 - 20
Recommended Fabric
Light to medium weight wovens like linen, cotton poplin, batiste, voile and chambray will have a more casual feel. Choose a drapey woven like silk, viscose, tencel, or rayon challis for a more elegant or fluid effect.
