By CHALK & NOTCH, the Orchid Midi Dress is a paper sewing pattern.

Garment Details: The Orchid Midi Dress is a wrap bodice with a midi length skirt. View A has ruffle sleeves. View B has long sleeves with a gathered cap and wrist. There is a combination of elastic and drawstring to define the waist and add drape to the bodice.
