Description
The Mai Tai dress offers so many possibilities: In a luscious silk, it's a high-fashion kimono. In a crisp solid fabric, it's corporate chic. In a bold print, it's modern and fun. Whichever fabric you choose, the Mai Tai dress is amazingly comfortable and so flattering.
The Mai Tai pattern is a contemporary wrap dress with waist ties which are stitched into the darts. It has a faced V-neck, a mitred hem and comfy kimono sleeves.
Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate. You should have a working knowledge of your sewing machine, and a basic sewing vocabulary. This dress comes together quickly and has detailed instructions guiding you along. There are some tight curves and a sharp V-neckline, so beginners should choose stable fabrics until they are comfortable.
