21Here is my third version of the  Aldaia dress by Pauline Alice. This time, I was a real copycat and simple made the same one as Pauline modelled herself.

what is it?

Again, I referred you back to my first article to know all the good things I think about this pattern.

For this third version, I went out of my comfort zone. I really like the version Pauline modeled with crossover neckline and pencil skirt but I wasn’t sure that it will fit me as my hips are much wider than Pauline’s. But I really like it so I decided to give it a go. I ordered the same type of fabric (stripy ponte) and here I go!

To be honest, I don’t know whether I like it or not. My boyfriend loves it but me, I find that it emphases the part of me that I like the least.

how is it made? 

 

I used a ponte milano with nice stripes but the quality is definitely not great.

which size is it? 

Again, I sewn a size 36 enlarged to a 38 at the waist, the fit is perfect for me.

is it modified? 

Not at all.

are you happy with it. 

I don’t know, I am not sure this shape is the best for me. It is really a personal feeling, I love this type of dresses on others but on me, I am not sure it is flattering.
