It’s a Zoe! This pattern was such fun to make. I modified it a bit to make it fit. I made it a size 8/34 on top going on to 12/38 at the bottom of the dress (i guess im pearshaped). I had the fabric for ages i found it once at a local thrift store. Its was rather discolored in places and i had fun (ahem) cutting the dress around these patches.
Cotton flannel(?) with tiny pattern.

Very nice – I’ve just put my version of Zoe on the Creation section. A great idea of wearing it over trousers! Oooo – what have I done with that pattern now?

Nice job! I have been thinking about making this dress but was concerned as I am a little pear shaped myself. Thanks for the inspiration to make my own. Looks lovely.
