Pass the inner tie through the slot provided, cross the panels at the back, bring them to the front, and tie at the side.
Perfect for a boho-chic style.
2. The knot at the back
Very elegant, this is the little touch that enhances the back of your wrap dress.
Follow the same steps as for the first knot: thread the inner tie through the slot provided, cross the ends at the front this time, bring them around to the back and tie. Ask for help with tying the knot—it's easier with two people!
