I made the sides more fitted, but this is a great pattern. Pick a stretchy jersey and avoid the zipper! My first dress ever! I’m so excited to keep making more!

I was just about to start this pattern with a jersey fabric I found. I was wondering, did you use interfacing with your jersey fabric? I wasn’t sure if you should use it with a stretchy fabric.

Your fit is so much better. The baggy sides on the original does nothing for the figure. Great job! Will give this one a try.

Very beautiful! I love that you made it from a knit and got rid of the zipper! It really looks great fitted!

This is the best version I’ve seen of this dress so far! Nice fabric too. Good job on fitting.

Wow! I think it’s the best Celest I’ve seen so far. It looks really good as a fitted garment. I like how you positioned the crown on the diamond too.
