Astoria is my first Stylearc pattern. Easy to understand directions and the dress went together quickly. I made it during shelter-in-place and had to use what I had on hand-an old twin size sheet! I’ve already worn it twice. Very comfortable. I look forward to making it again out of a higher quality fabric.

Love this dress (I’m currently making a second). Surprisingly easy pattern for a beginner like me 🙂

I love this dress. It is so easy to make. I narrowed the shoulders a little and put two darts in the back to give a better shape. I made one dress to just below the knee and the second one I increased the skirt length to just above the ankle and it looks great. My first time to use Style Arc patterns and I was not disappointed. Looking forward to the next one.

I love this pattern! I love the ties in the front and even if it looks a bit challenging is so easy to make. The instructions are spot on!
I started with a size 10 for shoulders, 12 bust and back at 10 for waist and hips. Cut the back with a CB seam and scooped a bit at he the CB waist level. Also, I made a swayback adjustment. Based on my test garment I took the side seams in 1cm extra and I shortened the skirt by 5cm. Also, I made a narrow shoulders adjustment. ( all normal adjustments for my body) For the sleeves, I used the longest length and at the end took 20cm off 🙂 I love the dress!

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.
