Elodie wrap dress

Hey everyone! Celine here in-house patternmaker at Closet Core Patterns. We had so much fun developing our Elodie Wrap Dress, and talked a lot during development about possible fit adjustments people would need to make to get this pattern fitting perfectly (or at least that's the goal!) This pattern is very versatile and adjustable thanks […]

My review of the Elodie Wrap Dress by Closet Core Patterns out of a gorgeous polka dot linen from the Fabric Store. This version is

This just might be the prettiest thing I've ever sewn! After making my green floral Elodie Wrap Dress, I knew pattern would be perfect for a length of fabric I had ice dyed this spring.

I've been thinking a lot about the sustainability of my sewing recently, given that I…

My first ever "playsuit" - a mash-up of the Elodie Wrap Dress by Closet Core Patterns and the Winslow Culottes by Helen's Closet

Woven wrapstravaganza, part two! See my last post for part one. This is the Closet Core Patterns Elodie Wrap Dress, which I've been meaning to make since last summer. The Elodie pattern has release pleats at the bust as opposed to the darts that the Hannah has, cut-on sleeves (where Hannah has set-in), and a voluminous (but ungathered) skirt in multiple lengths. For my Elodie, which I was treating as sort of a wearable muslin, I went with the above-knee length version with shorter sleeves…
