Notes

I wanted something between the small and medium sizes. I did one less waist decrease, then added one additional hip increase later on to keep a little negative ease at the bust and some body skimming positive ease around the waist and hips. I love the fit!

I started to run out of my main color at the bottom, so I improvised with some skinny stripes and by using the lighter pink for the bottom edge. At first I wasn’t that into it, but my MC wasn’t available anymore. Now I’m cool with it. I love this dress.
