How to hack the pattern to create different dresses
Another amazing feature of this long wrap fall dress is that you can hack the pattern to create different dresses, depending on your style and preference. Here are some examples:

- Maxi dress with short sleeves: To create a maxi dress with short sleeves, you just need to lengthen the skirt pieces to your desired length. You can also add some slits to the skirt for some extra movement and flair.
- Midi dress with no sleeves: To create a midi dress with no sleeves, you just need to cut off the sleeve pieces and finish the armholes with some bias tape or facing. You can also add some ruffles or lace to the neckline for some extra femininity and charm.
How to choose the best boots for this dress for fall and winter season
One of the best accessories for fall and winter season is boots. Boots can elevate your long wrap fall dress look and make it more suitable for the weather and the occasion. But what boots go the best with a long wrap fall dress? Here are some tips and examples to inspire you:
