Cashmerette: Upton Dress
I fell head-over-heels for Cashmerette's Upton the moment I laid eyes on Jennifer's epically twirly version on the Curvy Sewing Collective website. There was no question about it. I *had* to have this pattern!
Cashmerette is a pattern band focused specifically on sizes 12-28 and bust sizes C - H, so of course I feel right at home and welcome with their patterns! I did a little bit of tweaking, based on the fit of my bodice muslin. to get the fit you see here. My changed were to lengthen the bodice half an inch, add length to the skirt, and move up the apex (adjusting the bust dart) to better fit my personal shape. Everything else you see is all the beautiful design of this lovely pattern. I absolutely LOVE the results and get "where did you get your dress??" every time I wear it. Isn't that the best feeling ever?? Have you tried the Upton yet? What did you think? |
