In the fourth of our capsule wardrobe workshops, we'll sew the Elodie dress from Closet Core - the perfect wrap dress for all four seasons!
Over four 3-hour sessions, you'll take your measurements, make a muslin toile, and stitch up a long or short wrap dress, fitted specifically to your shape. Stitch it in linen, cotton or poplin for a perfect wrap dress for every season.
All materials are available in the shop at a 10% discount.
Please Note: In an effort to finish the dress in class, this workshop requires you to come to the first session with your pattern traced & cut out and your muslin cut. If you have attended our previous capsule wardrobe workshops, this is how we start all classes.
If you are unable to do this on your own and need assistance, please sign up for the Elodie Dress Prep Session.
