Notes	Update: turned out pretty bad: the fabric was pulling up on the side seams. Probably because of the lining attached as interlining. Tried to unpick it but the fabric did not allow it :( I use à polyester blend stretch velvet dress making fabric. Lining is not necessary but I always choose to line my dresses. Black lightweight jersey lining fabric Alterations: custom sizing gave perfect fit this time. Thank you Lekala. By personal preference I made: I made the bottom part with real wrap instead of fake wrap, but top part remains fake wrap. I added some draping at the waist. I merged the 2 fabrics into one on the pattern because I wanted to make 1 color dress not bicolor. I will definitely make the original version too as soon as I get 2 suitable fabrics for the bicolor version I recommend this pattern
