笔记	I love the look of this dress in the pattern picture. It is true 1920s style. It clearly is going to look best on a tall, thin girl, with a small bust. Which I am not. I ended up taking in huge darts from the bust-line to where the flounce starts in the skirt. And similar on the back. Otherwise, the dress just hung from a fuller bust and looked shapeless and definitely not flattering. But with that adjustment I rather like the dress. Frankly, I wish I had used a higher quality fabric. This is a cheap rayon challis from fabricwholesaledirect.com that wrinkles very easily, which mars the look. Apart from the fit adjustments, doing the angled inserts in the skirt was pretty tricky. Requires a lot of patience, but doable.
