DIY MODAL KNIT WRAP DRESS

HI DARLINGS! OK, Don’t be upset but this DIY MODAL KNIT WRAP DRESS is a rub off of a dress I bought and not a pattern. You can however remake it using a few patterns I listed below. I bought THIS black wrap dress at FOREVER 21 a few months back for $11, I came home rubbed it off, and created a pattern.

I listed the fabric I used, modifications, and possible patterns you can use below. The dress was so inexpensive that rubbing it off to create a pattern cost as much as buying a pattern itself. The one thing I love most about sewing is that I can see something or buy something and then use that item to create patterns that I can use to recreate those garments in better fabric choices. The dress I bought and inspired this DIY was a pretty inexpensive knit so being able to make it in the fabric of my choice is soemthing I am grateful for.

DIY DRESS INFO & MODIFICATIONS

As I mentioned above this dress is drafted from a dress I purchased. I loved it so much but the fabric was cheap so I copied the dress to create a pattern. Now I can make this over and over again. The dress is linked above and I used this MODAL KNIT I picked up at JOANN, you can find other knits HERE.

Here are some pattern options for you, or you can buy the dress linked above and copy it like I did, LOL. What I liked most about this knock off is the the front skirt is a full skirt with an attached overlay as the wrap which allows me to wear it without worrying about the wind blowing the wrap open.
