This is my very own Chantilly dress from Colette Patterns.
The pattern has great features: front yoke, gathered bust and skirt. I omitted the pockets as my fabric was way too light for that. I lined the top with the same fabric but left the skirt unlined.
I really like the flowy skirt, it’s perfect for the hot summer we’re having.
More details on my blog.
Very light cotton: beige background with small purple, pink and teal flowers.
