   Take a look at Butterick 5206.  I purchased it last year but haven't made it yet.  Just checked  and it is still in the book.  http://www.butterick.com/web/shop.cgi?search=5206&TI=10001&M=&pageSize=12&s.search.all.x=26&s.search.all.y=13

   Wow, Thanks for your prompt reply. I saw that pattern today when I was perusing the pattern books at Jo-Anns here in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I was thinking that I could just go ahead and mirror the right side on the left side and create an opening on the skirt that would make it a true wrap dress. I tried to buy the pattern but they didn't have it in stock. Said I could order it. Duh! Just left in disgust. Guess I'm just one of those pesky women who would just like to find a pattern and then the appropriate fabric for something when I get an idea. No such luck. I'll try Hancock later in the week. Thanks again.

   Vogue 8379 has gotten lots of rave reviews at patternreview.com

   http://www.voguepatterns.com/item/V8379.htm?search=8379&page=1

   As you can see, these are pretty close to the original designs.

   A couple of Kwik Sews which appear a little less line-for-line in appearance have also received favorable reviews.

   Vogue patterns will be $3.99 at Jo-Ann fabrics April 30 to May 2. I know it is not a "now"purchase" but I do hate paying full price or even the still overpriced everyday "discount price " for patterns.

   Thank you, That does look very much like a DVF wrap dress.

   If you can stand another alternative, Simplicity 4074 A/B is another simple wrap dress, with princess seams.

   One never knows what treasures one will find here. I have a picture of a vogue pattern that is out of print that I have been looking for - and there it is almost identical in the Simplicity. Thanks!!
