Very pretty. Love the belt. Adds a nice accent to the dress.

Thank you for the review - I too am sewing my first Colette dress and am finding that a muslin is absolutely necessary, for all the adjustments needed to the bodice... thanks for the tip on the extra fabric in back, it seems to be a quite common problem and you had a clever solution :)
