Winter in New York is an elegant midi length wrap dress featuring a gorgeous statement three quarter length bishop sleeve. The bodice is gathered at the back for a lovely relaxed feel whilst darts are used to add shaping and fit to the back skirt. The dress is tied at one side whilst a snap fastener secures the inside wrap firmly in place.

Versatile and timeless, Winter in New York is suitable for any occasion and season depending on fabric type. For a more casual look, use a soft linen mix or rayon and team with flats such as sandals or flip flops. Change into heels and accessorise with some statement jewellery to take you from day time to evening. When the winter weather sets in, wear over some thick tights and boots to see you through the colder months.

Fabric

Due to the width of some of the pattern pieces we recommend using a wide fabric. 4 metres of a 60” (150cm) wide fabric will be enough to cover the full range of sizes and account for any directional print in the fabric. If you are interested in the Confetti Blush fabric which is 55” (140cm) wide, you will need 4 metres for sizes 8 -18 and 5 metres for sizes 20-26.
