The Shirley Faux Wrap Dress & Top
I designed this pattern as one of the wrap style dresses and tops for season 19 of It’s Sew Easy tv. The Shirley wrap can be sewn as a top or a dress. Because the style must pullover the head, this top must be sewn with a knit.
There are many versions in this pattern including sleeveless, short sleeve, and long sleeve. Then you have the option of sewing a top or dress.
This top is easy to sew and perfect for beginners! Here are the details:
The Shirley Wrap Top & Dress #AW1913
A stylish faux wrap knit top and dress.
- Available in Misses Sizes 0 – 18 and Plus Sizes 16W – 36W
- Skill Level: Beginner
Available in instant digital download format or the paper version with spiral notebook mailed to your home.

So pretty on you. I’m not sure how I would look in a wrap top.
I would love to have the Shirley pattern in the paper version with the spiral notebook. I like the style for a dress but the tunic length might be my choice as it would be casual but dressy at the same time.
I would love to win the Shirley. A wrap style is very flattering!
I’m not a great lover of wrap tops or dresses, because I have a short body, but the way this is styled I’m sure it would definitely suit my bust and thick waist 😉. I might just have to add it to my Angela Wolf collection… and a collection I do have. Love them all
I would love to win wrap top dress. Thank you for making everyone happy Angela.
Love this pattern
I love the Spiral Booklets…
Love your sharing of expertise and knowledge. Thank you for this opportunity!
I would love to wear this. Has anyone made it that has a weight problem?
People have said it is very attractive on full sized ladies as the diagonal line and the ruching draw your eyes away from problem tummies and gives it good fit.
It looks amazing on you. I think I would make the top.
