Pattern Used<\/strong>: I used M8211, which I had already sewn three times: twice in the sleeveless version here <\/a>and here<\/a>, twice in the puff sleeves version here<\/a>. I had loved my first sleeveless version (with the long skirt) so much that I was very keen to reiterate – it only took my three years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sizing<\/strong>: size 10 for my UK 8\/ FR 36\/ US 2, this is my standard size for Vogue\/Butterick\/ McCall\u2019s\/ Simplicity patterns, despite the size chart telling me I should be a 12\/14. I am an E cup and did not need an FBA, the bodice front offers ample room for whatever size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Level of difficulty<\/strong>: this is an extremely easy dress to sew, the bodice is really straightforward in the sleeveless version (less so in the puff sleeve version as you have to fiddle with elastic) .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fabric used<\/strong>: a lightweight cotton with a gorgeous border print, purchased from Stofaholic on Instagram. Tatiania sources the most gorgeous designer fabrics, well worth the import trouble all the way from Denmark!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Changes to the pattern<\/strong>: for the bodice, I removed some fabric at the back as the top was slightly sagging (the waist was perfect). The skirt is self drafted, once again rectangles of fabric shirred at the waist, the keep the perfect border pattern intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love rating<\/strong>: so pretty and comfy to wear on hot summer days! I am very pleased.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
