The fabric
100% cotton of Yesfabric.eu. It has a weight of 100 gr/m2, which is fairly lightweight and it is a bit seethrough.



Sewing
Because a little bit more ease was requested, I sew in a different order. I sew the top back, the top front, bottom back and the bottom front. Then the top to the bottom. This way it is easier to align all the seams.
I used 10 buttons on the dress.

Pattern alterations
This is the original length. The sleeves are a bit shorter.
