A form fitting dress, shaped using waist and bust darts. It includes neckline yoke trimmed with golden band. An invisible zipper is inserted to the back seam. The dress has a back slit for easier walking.
I was inspired by Sew4my3’s creation, a lovely vintage looking dress she made for her daughter.
Sorry for the bad quality pictures, I will post better ones as soon as I get them.

It’s good to hear that! Please, post some pictures of the dress when you find some time.
Also, if you’re willing to share your resizing skills, I think many members would appreciate a how to (Including me! Unfortunately, my drafting skills are limited to my size only).

AnaJan, are there no instructions? or am ai just blind this morning (which I could be since I have a degenerative cornea disease)? I like the dress, hence I downloaded the pattern, but I didn’t see instructions available on either the pattern or project page.
