Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
I had to drastically take in the sides of this dress. I took in about four inches total at the waist. (And yes, I made the size that corresponded to my measurements). Otherwise, it looked like a tent.
Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes

Any additional comments
This was a very fun pattern to do! Well, except for the facings....
