I saw that @SewRuthieSews , it's very pretty, and looks cool for Summer days.  <3  Expensive though if I remember correctly...

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.

Are all the seams and the hem meant to be at an angle?

Would imagine it needs an FBA which is causing it ride up  and swing forward.   No darts on it.   It really highlights the problem doesn’t it that a plain fabric wouldn’t.

Agreed, it looks better on the flat chested model on the Albaray site - where it is £120
This unique patchwork tiered midi dress is crafted from unused 'deadstock' fabrics so numbers are very limited. Featuring a scoop neck with a tie fastening at the back, statement puff sleeves and side pockets. A slip on, relaxed style patching together multi coloured checks, stripes and ditsy florals. The perfect easy breezy summer dress.Made from 100% unused 'dead stock' Cotton.

Is this meant to be for little girls ???

Or women who want to pretend they are little girls ???

All the model in the picture below/above (depending on your settings) needs is her teddy and shell be all set for bed!

I quite agree with your comments @Iminei
So many beers, so little time.
