Red Convertible One-Seam Dress

Print Page

Description

Stretch-knit, ONE SEAM dress, basically a circle skirt, wrapped elastic waistband, with two long straps that you can wrap in different ways. Super fun and flattering! I've made 3 with slightly different fabrics, and 4-way stretch is the best. Definitely play around with this, different skirt styles and lengths, add a wide waistband... only downside is it uses a LOT of fabric, especially if you like long straps like me...

Materials

3.5-4 yds of stretch knit/spandex, elastic
