The Henry is a fresh, no-fuss take on the classic wrap skirt - simple and sleek. No zippers, no ties, no drama. Just step in, set the closures and go. It does all the things you want a wrap skirt to do without any of the nonsense you don't. It's effortless yet elevated. It's the kind of piece that makes you feel pulled together even if your hair is still wet and you're running five minutes late.

 

Our patterns come in PDF format for use at home, copy shop or projecting with both size ranges included. The DD range comes in sizes XS - XXL and the JJ range comes in sizes 1X - 5X.

    Nice design, sparse instructions

    This is a cool skirt, and, given that you understand how to see the mechanism for closing the skirt, it is a pretty quick make. But, I had trouble understanding the instructions. I made it eventually. Would not recommend unless you have some experience.

    Love the design

    I wanted to make a wrap skirt where I didn't have to worry about accidentally flashing my undies and this skirt fit the bill. I love the design, it's very flattering and also modern. The length is great on me, for reference I am 6 ft tall. The reason for 4 stars is that the darts at the side don't sit as well as I would like on my particular hip shape. When I make this again (in denim this time) I will try adding side seams to get a smoother line there. I will definitely make at least one more, it's a fantastic skirt pattern!

    Perfect wrap skirt!

    Looks like a wrap skirt but is not! Very easy and quick to sew, easy to adjust. I love this pattern.

    Elegance personified!

    I love this skirt. I made it in microfibre, and the drape made it incredibly flattering and elegant. Instructions are clear and easy to follow, pattern is superbly drafted, and I thoroughly enjoyed making it. This is the fourth DJ pattern I have bought; always outstanding in both design and sewing experience.

    Details:

    Size made: S as my hips were in between size XS and S.

    Modifcations: None, not even length! I am 160cm and they are a bit longer than midi length.

    Fabric used: Japanese midweight microfibre.

    Fabric meterage: 1.2m for 140cm width.
