This gorgeous dress is the Highlands Wrap Dress by Allie Olson! I was lucky to be one of the testers for the pattern back in March, but since I procrastinated and had to rush, I wasn’t able to make the height adjustments needed.

Did everyone just buy the Lodo Dress by True Bias as soon as it was released?? I totally did, and I was so excited when I saw a few people use this same fabric, just in different colorways.
