My first vogue pattern - really dislike the cheap paper. The instructions are ok but when you are used to the super clear instruction from indie-patterns this is a bit fussy.
Size M, a bit to large but I like it this way. I needed no zipper because of that.
I'm really short (152cm/ 5 feet) and usually need to move up the waistline quite a bit. But since I don't like an empire line I didn't do that on this dress and the result is that instead of an empire line I got a regular waist dress :). One problem with that was that the v-neck goes to the waistline and suddenly i felt like J-Lo in Versace (remember that dress anyone?). So i just overlapped the front pieces and made it a couple inches higher. Still quite deep but now I can actually wear a bra underneath.
