Sally Norton –
Surprisingly easy. There are only six pieces in the bodice, so scaling is really not at all difficult. I measured myself, then enlarged the drawings until the measurements were close. I made it up first in muslin and had to make very few adjustments. It went together easily and accurately. I added the ruffle to the skirt. The original gown closed with hooks; I chose to lace it up.
