This tutorial takes you through the steps of how to sew your own beautiful wrap dress featuring statement puff sleeves, a sleek fit and ability to change details to suit your style!
I felt like I was missing something that could work as a versatile essential for any occasion or season - easily layered up for cooler months or worn as is to catch the summer breeze. So I'm very excited to be adding this number to the wardrobe to help fill that gap!
Hope you enjoy following along :)
