This was my first StyleArcAdeline, in a lovely black linen with a not-quite-evenly-printed pineapple pattern in white.
I was inspired to make this after seeing some gorgeous versions from Meg, and Lara of Thornberry (I also love this amazing version made by Lara for her mum).

I managed some ok pattern matching on one side of one of the pockets, but didn’t manage to blend the other pocket in quite so well. I actually love the pockets on this particular version of the dress though, so I think when I make it again (my 5th Adeline), I’ll definitely add the patch pockets back on!

Size Details: I sewed this in a straight size 22 and am pictured here with a 47″ bust and 54″ hips. I planned on sizing down for subsequent versions but the hem makes it quite difficult to get in and out of cars with much grace, so I wouldn’t want any less fabric around the bottom
