Dress 263 — wrap dress with dropped shoulders
Satin wrap dress pattern with dropped shoulders and elbow-length sleeves, an elegant piece for formal event lines.
Dress with a wrap neckline and dropped shoulders, fitted three-quarter sleeves, a defined waist with diagonal draping and a straight skirt to the knee. The satin surface reflects light evenly in both colors shown.
The intense sheen and the drape with body of the fabric correspond to a satin of good weight, ideal for the diagonal draping to keep its shape without wrinkling. It is an elegant niche piece for event lines, quinceanera parties or bridesmaid looks, with strong sales in larger sizes. Cut the draping on the diagonal following the grain of the fabric so the sheen does not change tone between panels.
It comes in 8 sizes (XS to 4XL) with the industrial grading already done: pick the sizes you need on the product page, or buy the full size range in one go. Delivered as an A4 PDF to print at home and a true-scale plotter PDF (90, 120 or 150 cm wide); DXF/AAMA, Optitex (PDS), marker (MRK) or Audaces (ADS) files for cutting directly in CAD are available on request. Digital download within 24 hours of payment confirmation.
Professional sewing pattern for women, approved with a sewn sample, with the full industrial size range available. Sizes are chosen on the product page (the base price covers the standard size selection and each extra size adds a small surcharge); the CAD formats include the full size range.
