A cotton dress made with the Heidi Prom dress variation. This is the skirt length the pattern came with, and only the front panel was included, so I assumed it is meant to be used for the back as well. The back neck seemed way too big; I hardly ever have to adjust this dimension in patterns. So I took in two darts at the back neck.

The upper part inspired by “variation” is very nice! I started to cut the pattern, but I was wondering how it could be… I see it’s very nice. I’m going for it!
