Lovely dress! If I had seen you at the dinner I would have given you rave reviews, too!

The dress looks gorgeous on you. I loved this pattern when I saw it in the mag and did a quick muslin of the bodice but it was a disaster on me (I'm not a size 34 mind!) - I might have to go back and have another look

I'm not surprised your dress got rave reviews - it's very becoming on you. That's useful knowing about the cap sleeves - I was considering making this pattern, but was concerned about the stability of the sleeves. Thank you for your review!

Very pretty. And it's really cool that you worked on this quickly and got such a great result. (Sometimes working under pressure gets such great result - a lesson for us all) No wonder you got compliments! Thanks for the review, it was inspiring.

Gorgeous dress, I too can understand the rave reviews very well.

Gorgeous dress on you! And very helpful to hear it was easy to make, I've a couple of "possible" formals coming up and making something under pressure will be a distinct possibility so I'll bear this one in mind after your comments! Congratulations on a lovely project.

Everyone has said it all before me - but - my words - absolutely gorgeous on you.

Gorgeous dress! It's good to know that this can be put together quickly. You'd never know that to look at it.

It looks great on you! I like yours much better than the magazine version..the fabric they used looked almost too plain for the bodice section. Yours is elegant!

That is one killer dress! And the back looks great too. I didn't realize it would look so great from the pattern drawing.
