Named Oliva Wrap Dress

The Olivia wrap dress is a delightfully easy-to-wear and versatile classic piece that is suited for both work and leisure. The interfacing around the neckline ensures that the neckline stays neatly in place without exposing too much. The tulip shape skirt has pleats at the front waist to add ease, and there are practical pockets sewn in the side seams. The elastic waist is tied around with a wide belt.

FABRIC RECOMMENDATIONS

Choose a light weight or medium weight drapey jersey. We recommend using a high-quality, firm jersey that holds its shape well. Make sure to use interfacing that has stretch in it.

MATERIALS
