I recently finished this dress. The bodice is self-drafted and the skirt is from a 1940s pattern, Simplicity 4254. More details can be found on my blog.

This is lovely. It fits like clothes should. I think in the last couple of decades a lot of women think clothes should be airbrushed on to fit and look good, but this is what a good slim fit should be.
It would look great with a bright red or pea green wide belt.
looooooove the fabric- super cute.
Great job, very pretty!
Lovely dress and fabric.
