I've made this pattern in a couple of different sizes now - a smaller version of the tunic that's quite fitted, a larger curvy version of the blouse that is meant to fit more loosely. I find this pattern very true to size and easy to work with, all the pieces fit together as they should and the instructions are clear. It's a very good bargain to get so many styles in one pattern - I do plan to make a sleeveless version of the tunic next, before going onto making the dress. Honestly - such a flattering and easy to use pattern!
Très chouette
Liked the top very much but had to add fabric to to front as too much of my boobs were showing, wish I’d made a tulle first. Have now adjusted the pattern. So am looking forward to the next one.
I've made this pattern twice, once with a very drapey viscose and once with a thicker woven fabric. I love them both! The dress makes me feel confident and the back ties make it adjustable for size fluctuations. Will definitely make it again and wholeheartedly recommend.
I'm so glad I tried this pattern, it features repeatedly in my me-made wardrobe. I've used a variety of fabrics - linen, rayon, broderie anglaise, chambray, ramie - and I love them all!
I feel stylish and comfortable in the Darling Ranges dress, there is enough coverage for a work dress but it's fun and casual to suit weekend wear.
I'm in the crossover size but decided on the Curve pattern due to bust/cup size. When I made a toile I was surprised to find it roomy - that never happens! I did a few tweaks using the tutorials, and now have the fit spot-on. I find I prefer the back darts over the ties, for example.
