Printed sewing pattern • Sizes XS–3XL • Skill level: Confident beginner
The Wrap Dress Sewing Pattern by The Assembly Line is a beautifully modern interpretation of the classic wrap dress, combining clean Scandinavian design with versatile styling options. Featuring an elegant asymmetrical skirt and thoughtful construction details, this timeless pattern creates a refined silhouette that's equally suited to everyday wear and special occasions.
The design features a shirt collar, centre-front button fastening, bracelet-length sleeves and an asymmetrical A-line skirt that drapes beautifully when worn. A single button fastens one side of the wrap, while narrow internal ties create a secure and comfortable fit. Practical side seam pockets complete the design, balancing elegance with everyday functionality.
The pattern also includes several customisation options, allowing you to create a dress that reflects your own style. Replace the front button with tie bands, omit the collar for a cleaner neckline, or leave out the back bodice darts for a looser, more relaxed fit.
Perfect for:
- Modern wrap dresses with elegant Scandinavian styling
- Intermediate sewists looking to develop their garment sewing skills
- Versatile dresses that can be personalised in multiple ways
- Light to medium weight woven fabrics with beautiful drape

You will also need:

- For the button fastening version: 2 x 10mm buttons / 2 x 0.4m lengths of 5–10mm tie tape (or make your own from bias-cut fabric)
Sewing tips:
- Experiment with contrasting fabrics for the two front panels to create a striking contemporary look
