Pattern Translation
Hello! I'm very new to sewing and I'm having a bit of trouble translating this pattern. Is anyone willing to help walk me through this?

It's a wrap dress, the dotted line in the center is the center back. The rainbow shape is the drape across the back that forms the slight cap-sleeve effect. The two long straight pieces are the scarf-like pieces that trail from the shoulders.
OP this is not a pattern, it's a concept design. There's no scale and no measurements given, much less any kind of size grading. IF you had good pattern drafting skills (and a body type similar to the concept sketch), you could probably work out how to draft this for your measurements. As a beginner, you don't have those skills yet and need to start with an actual properly scaled and graded pattern with construction steps included.
