Lovely pattern. View B. Came together well. Nice shape and lovely frill around the hem with split. I have quite small shoulders so had to reduce the vertical length of the bodice with corresponding adjustments to the arm holes and V-neck. I did French seams and should’ve allowed some extra seam allowance but got away with it! Also managed to get it on and off without placing a zip. Would definitely make again.

Straightforward smart little dress.
Have made this up in draft form and it’s a very nice little dress and quite easy instructions to follow. I hade to lengthen the skirt by about 4 inches (I’m 5’ 6”) and the bodice by an inch but the fit then was excellent. I usually were a 12/14 overall in dresses but had to make up the largest size (a 16) in this pattern. So check the finished garment size carefully before making up.
