Rosie Sews (verified owner) – April 17, 2019:

I really like my completed dress. I appreciated Style Arc’s assistance in choosing my size. I cut a Size 10. My toile allowed me to see that the shoulders were too big. I made a narrow shoulder adjustment and raised the sleeve cap. This gave me a better fit for sewing the dress in a polyester jersey fabric. I wore the dress to a party, it was comfortable and chic – just what I wanted.

I found the written instructions a bit cryptic at times but researched the techniques I needed.

I like the dress. Cut a straight size 16, but unusually for my strawberry shape the shoulders were too big. Looking back at the line drawings there is a slight drop shoulder in the design, this does nothing for me so I altered the shoulders to be more fitted, which I think goes better with the slinky lines of the dress. Its easy to put together and comfortable to wear. Probably not suitable for directional fabric.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
