Based on the Lily dress from Colette Patterns, this dress was fun and easy to sew. Perfect dress for the hot summer days! I made 2 minor adjustments: added some cm to the bodice and made Small Bust Adjustment.

Thank you! For some reasons, Lily is not so popular as Hazel. Go for it girl, you have such a great eye for fabric! I am sure you’ll make something very special!
