Chichester Wrap Dress

Description

Perfect for office, day or evening the Chichester is destined to be one of your go to patterns for dressmaking. The wrap silhouette is cut to flatter and give good coverage. Finished with soft flutter sleeves for upper arm coverage.

Make up in crepe & pair with heels for evening wear or flats / Stan Smiths for a practical yet stylish day dress. It also comes with a choice of two cup-sizes so there is less likely to be a need for a full bust adjustment.

The regular pattern is for those with up to 2 inches (5cm) difference in full bust and upper bust; A larger cup size is provided for those whose full bust is up to 4-4.5 inches (10-11cm) more than their upper bust.
