Look at the details on this dress. The sleeve treatment, the pleated and crossed bodice, the flowing skirt. Oh yes, I'd love to put this on my list. But it's a Marfy. So what, right? Uhm not quite. These patterns have no seam allowance, which fine, I can not be so lazy and add those. The problem is they don't come with directions.
Does that look like a dress you could put together without help? Not for my level of expertise.
Le Sigh
Instead, I punish myself by going to the Marfy site every few months and bawling like a baby over what might have been.
Let's look a bit more, shall we?

| I adore the top of this dress. It's a shame the bottom is the only part I could manage. |
 |
| This one looks simple enough but I can't figure out how the bodice comes together. |
 |
| Very 1930's, isn't it? |
 |
| Those side pleats are divine. |
 |
| Don't you just love those details? |
