Notes	Another dress 5574 without sleeves, this one in heavy linen. Sorry for the creases, it's linen! As with the previous two, I've also omitted the zipper as I find I can perfectly well pull it over my head. Edited to add more recent pics because they are interesting... the more I wear this dress, the less creases it has and the better it fits! I used upholstery weight linen and it behaves a lot better than what I thought it would. I was afraid it was too thick for a summer dress but I think the weight of the fabric pulls it down and smoothes it when I wear it. I left the earlier pics so that you could see the difference. All I did was wear it, no ironing in between.
