There’s a reason wrap skirts never go out of style — they’re flattering, feminine, and fabulously versatile. Whether you’re heading out to brunch, running errands, or planning a weekend at the beach, a wrap skirt is the kind of staple that can be dressed up or down in an instant.
As someone who lives in handmade clothes and loves a sewing project with instant gratification, I’ve fallen hard for the wrap skirt trend. Not only are wrap skirts ridiculously easy to sew (most don’t even require zippers or buttons!), but they’re also forgiving in fit and perfect for all seasons. Pair them with sandals in summer, boots in fall, or even tights in winter — these skirts work overtime in your wardrobe.
In this roundup, I’ve gathered 25 of the best wrap skirt sewing patterns and tutorials — from breezy boho styles and beachy sarongs to structured midi lengths and classic A-lines. Whether you’re working with linen, cotton, rayon, or even upcycling old bedsheets (yes, that’s a thing and it looks amazing!), there’s a wrap skirt here for every vibe and every skill level.
