You do not choose your size based on ready to wear clothing sizes, as sizing can vary between brands and countries.

For the Serene Wrap Maxi Dress, you will choose your size using your bust measurement. Clear instructions are included in the guide to show you how to measure yourself correctly before cutting your pattern.

Because Serene is fitted mainly through the bust and has extra ease through the waist and skirt, you do not need to grade between waist and hip sizes for most body types.

Pattern files split by size

The Serene Wrap Maxi Dress includes multiple customisation options, including neckline and sleeve variations. To keep the pattern easy to read and beginner friendly, the files are split by size rather than placing every size and option into one busy layered file.

This means you can download and print the size you need without sorting through unnecessary lines.

Each size file includes the relevant pattern pieces and clear instructions so you can print, cut, and sew with confidence.
