I have made 2 of these dresses and struggle with the same parts every time. On my third dress I realised that changing the order of the steps created a much better result.
Love this pattern, though and the dresses are so comfy to wear.

Dress is stunning. Pattern is exceptionally hard to read. Be prepared to read between the lines at every step.

Loved the look of this dress and the pattern worked really well. Have made it in a muted yellow and white spot pattern and it looks good with a light blue denim jacket.

I’m really happy with this lovely dress. I made it in a rayon print and used mother of pearl buttons. The V neck sits really well and does not gape, although the V looks low in the line drawings the overlap keeps everything covered. I joined the back bodice and skirt to the midriff piece before shirring and that was much easier. Thanks Style Arc, I love it

Just finished a Belle in a Rayon. Came together well. The methods shown gave a very professional finish and I was very happy with the finished article. What I did have difficulties with was the shirring – my machine was not easy to adjust -is there a standard amount of gathering? 1eg: 12 inch fabric equals 6 gathered.

I just finished my second Belle and want to make a third:). It’s both fun to sew and gorgeous to wear. Made zero alterations to the fit, which rarely happens. Worth every penny.
