Wanderlust Dress

The Wanderlust Dress is designed for stretch knit fabrics & features a selection of necklines, sleeves & dress lengths.

The bodice section is designed to fit the upper body firmly but comfortably & includes a centre back seam, allowing you to further shape the dress to suit your body if required.  

With 4 lengths to choose from, the skirt section flares out in a wide & flattering A-line silhouette, from the hip bone to the hemline. 

The slimline sleeve comes in three lengths & there are two flared sleeves with a softer, more relaxed fit, making it an all season pattern.
