The instructions are difficult to follow and make too many assumptions. I swore a lot while working on this costume. The front and back tucks do not match. The gathering at the waist cannot be gathered; it must be pleated. If you follow the instructions for the cummerbund, you will have a raw edge. The final garment DOES NOT match the illustration.
