This is the dress with pleats and unique gathers. I haven’t finished the dress yet and I am very frustrated with it. The gathers at the waist fit into an angled dart. They don’t want to hang straight down but, rather poof out to the side (perpendicular to the dart). Also, there is a seam incorporated into the gathering; when you gather that seam, the gathering pulls it to where it doesn’t hang straight either, which throws the entire seam out of whack where it is supposed to be hidden in the gathers.
