This dress is McCalls 7116. i used a rayon fabric with a directional print so you can really see that it is on the bias. I underlined it with a similar white rayon. The bodice is gathered at the empire waist line. The dress has small ruffled sleeves which I think would be okay to leave out. The zipper was hard to install so I simply did my standard invisible zipper instead.
