Fitted spring dress with waist boning, inverted pleats neckline and cup size variations. Straight foward construction. Works well with an all over medium print. I omitted the center front pleat, just to full for my taste. Also lowered the side rear release points of the pleats for a more flattering look. Pressed the pleats for a crisp look, but they also give great movement when walking. The boning gives a beautiful waist line and is easy to apply. This pattern would be a great skill builder but is still satisfying for the more experienced sewer.
