For a review of this pattern see below:"This is a really great dress. It's so beautiful and complex, and really not that hard to construct. The end result will not quite be like the picture because the tie around the hips looks sewn to the garment in the illustration and in reality it is tied, so obviously the smoothness will be lacking a bit. You can use a thicker/stiffer fabric to give this a more office-like feel. I do suggest however to attach the peplum to the bodice first, then to the skirt, or if you are feeling really clever, make the skirt separate from the bodice/peplum, this will alleviate some of the bulk that bothered me about this garment. If you are brave you can easily remove and add the sleeves to alternate summer and winter looks. The shoulder pleats are a precious detail not to be missed. Love this garment!"
