New Look 6675

This weekend I finished the New Look 6675.

Actually finishing the hem took almost as much time as the rest of the dress, but with help from Åsa at sewing camp I got it done.

I made a FBA and added a bust dart on the side. I didn't put in a lining, instead I made bias tape and applied around the top. This is view D, but I skipped the thin halter neck strap. I also skipped the zipper. With a bit of a wriggle I can pull it over my head, so I did extra top stiching in the underbust and waist seams to reenforce them. Oh, I almost forgot, since I'm long waisted I also added some length to the bodice. Also I cut the skirt a little shorter to a length that I like better.
