I really really like this dress. The collar is fantastic, and it looks like it suits you well. I had a thought about the fit- did you use your high bust measurement for the bust, or go by your full bust? With the changes you had to do, it sounds like you may have a fuller bust than the patter allows for (B-cup). If you have a fuller bust and you buy a pattern according to the full bust measure, it will be too big everywhere except your bust. Also maybe make use of the lengthen/shorten line on the patterns in the future, it helps to use those so you don't distort the design of the pattern. That said, it really looks amazing on you, you should be so pleased.

I think your collar redo was to the benefit of the pattern! What a happy accident and a great dress!

bellelass, you're right. I do wear a C-cup! I need to pay more attention to this from now on. I could probably cut smaller sizes through the shoulders and grade out at the bust, right? Also, in this case, the lengthen/shorten lines were pretty much at the bottom of the bodice, so the petite alteration was pretty easy to do once the pattern was cut and sewn together.

Very chic. Just lovely. Thanks for your review - I have this pattern sitting with grey pinstripe ready to be cut out and I had been wondering about the ease - so taa.

Your dress is flattering and so wearable! The pattern's in my collection, and I've got some doubleknit in the stash! Perfect.
