Pattern Description:
Close fitting, lined dress has left side invisible zipper,left dart and left pleats from drape effect.
Pattern Sizing:
I cut 12 as per sizing and it fits great.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes, but the pleats are less obvious because of the pattern.
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes, but, maybe I missed it but I can't find where it tells you to complete the final pleat after attaching the skirt and bodice.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I like the draping effect of the pleats.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I moved the zipper to the right because I thought and invisible zipper with all those pleats would be trouble. I'm glad I did.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I would sew it again in a solid colour to highlight the structure.
