I very much enjoyed sewing the Ariana. I had to make some adjustments to the bodice to get the fit right but it wasn’t to bad. First time shirring and I’m in love:).

This dress turned out beautifully for me! I did have trouble attaching the bodice to the skirt because of the way the shirring was sewn into the bodice. Next time I will make adjustments to the way I attach the bodice pieces together. https://www.instagram.com/p/CCy2VwQlkFX/?igshid=1lbx7nqzu7779

The perfect summer dress!! I think the sizing is a bit off as I used my bust measurement and I had to take it all in in a few places. Other than that this is a gorgeous pattern for the ultimate summer dress! Will be making more for sure!

The instructions leave something to be desired, but I found some tutorials online that helped with the shirring and a better method for sewing the bodice together and attaching the skirt. That’s pretty typical to SA, and you should know that going into any of their patterns.
The size fits true to the bust. I did have to add an inch to the bodice pieces and some length to the straps to accommodate my long torso, but it fits perfectly with my changes. I changed the space between the buttons on the bodice so that there were 4 instead of 5, and then spaced the buttons on the skirt to match the top. I top stitched everything for a more professional look. I also left out the pockets so that it didn’t break up the pattern on the skirt. If I were to do this in a solid colour, I would have included the pockets.
I made this dress in cotton poplin, which has an adorable print but may have been a little stiff. Next time I make this dress it will be in a fabric with more drape.

Overall this is a great pattern and relatively easy to follow. Made mine with organic cotton fabric and added pleats at the waist rather than the gathers. Fits really well and is comfortable to wear. Very happy as I received a few complements when I wore it to brunch.

Love this dress pattern. Quick to make, cute and bra strap coverage! Instructions for the back panel took a couple of read throughs – just changed the construction order slightly when I made it a second time.

Awesome design but instructions are a little vague. I’m sure I’ll make it again but change the way it’s constructed.

I absolutely love this dress. I made my first Ariana in cotton/linen blend.
