Elegant and flowy!
It's so fun that my version had a whole new look than the photo because I used a dark cotton print, and added a wide strip of silk down the front and back. People love the little ruffle at the lower edge. This is a perfect design to make in various fabrics!

I love everything about this dress! From the shape to ruffled sleeves and pocket it is perfect. It makes me confident to cut this dress and know I will wear it to work.
From the wedge shape to ruffled sleeves and surprise on the side pocket it is perfect. It makes me confident to cut and sew this dress and know I will wear it to work. You will not see me in a blazer and pointe knit pants hobbling around on stiletto heels to a cubicle. Nope...this old lady is wearing her personal version of Tina Givens' one of a kind fashion concepts with her much loved Duckfeet clogs. I am rocking the look.

Chantelle
Ive made this at least 5 times. First as per pattern but without the sleeve ruffle. Full Length. 2nd one was double sided Lithuanian Linen - full length No ruffles at all. 3,4,5, in Shorter versions, some with different back to front. Because of the shaping you get a glimpse of the back fabric - on the front. It doesn't look like much is going in in this picture but it is extremely easy and very comfortable to wear.
