Makes a dress version of a Dirndl with the bodice/vest and smocked skirt sewn together at the waist. Apron covers front opening. Bodice is not tight/uplifting. If you are not used to European patterns watch out for pattern pieces that need to be cut on fold. Less steps with drawings. Bust size 38″ ended up being pattern size US16/EU42. Blouse neckline is gathered. I added a thread into the neckline to draw it up more. I topstitched some of the smocking.
