   Very flattering design and comfortable to wear. I’m not sure if I got the pleat/twist detail right but the end result looks OK, so I guess I did! I made my Corina dress in a beautiful bamboo jersey which is very “drapey” and perfect for this design.

   This is a very flattering design and as a confident beginner, I found the instructions to be clear and simple. My only confusion is why the shorten/lengthen lines were located on the skirt and not the bodice. Maybe it’s because the box pleat and twist are located on the bodice. Next time I will make my own shorten/lengthen lines on the bodice under the arms (across my bust).

   This was my first time using an independent pattern company and I was very pleased with the experience! I’m ready to sew this pattern again with modifications 🙂

   Really quick sew (once I got my head around the pleat) and comfortable to wear. Pleat hides a lot! Will be making more of these

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

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
