I made this dress to wear to my brother’s wedding. I had a bit of trouble with the back puffing out but managed to bring it in with a little trial and error. I’m not sure if this was the pattern or me.. I am fairly straight up and down so maybe it’s designed for a bit of curve.. I would have appreciated a bit more up top to fill out the bust!! And the final photo is a cute shot of my kids at the end of the night. They partied hard!
