Birte dress

Wrap shirt dress free sewing pattern – Birte dress

If you love to sew and wear dresses, then you absolutely must try your hand at a wrap dress! Birte dress – this pattern is a real highlight that will wrap you around its finger regardless of the season.

By the way, we have the designer Diane von Fürstenberg to thank for a wrap dress.

She invented the dress in 1973 and one of her most beautiful models is on display at the renowned Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

You can admire the good, absolutely timeless piece HERE.

Birte dress is closed on the side with a tie. On the other side, the pieces are additionally held together on the inside by a button and a small elastic loop.

FABRICS FROM HEMMERS ITEX

We are often asked: Where can I buy your fabrics? Hemmers Itex is a fabric wholesaler from Nordhorn, so unfortunately you can’t buy our fabrics directly from us.

Just ask your favourite fabric retailer for our fabrics and show us your sewing results on the social media channels with the hashtag #fabricsforyourcreativity. We are excited!

FABRIC RECOMMENDATION

We had the wrap shirt dress sewn from the viscose twill art.no.: 210638 & 639. Both designs were created in cooperation with the influencer frau maerz.

The pattern is designed for light woven fabrics as well as for stretchy fabrics. For the best fit, we recommend fabrics with 3-4% elastane, such as viscose and satin, crêpe, velvet stretch but also fine jersey fabrics and light knits.
