I was going to wear this today. I put it on and it did fit, but it just looked sad and frumpy, and the buttons were in the wrong place too! When I said it fit, it was just okay, once again the shoulders were too wide and I needed to pinch out some size in the armhole by the bust.
Normally I do have a good understanding when it comes to matching the fabric to the design style of the dress. This was way off from the beginning. The fabric was a scuba knit from JoAnn (love the fabric, wish they still had it) and the pattern should have been sewn in a stable cotton or linen fabric. This will be sent to the thrift store in hopes that it might work for someone else.
