The two main areas to focus on with fitting Sienna Dress is the bust and the dress length. The dress should be loosely fitted around the upper bust and will flare out in an A-line shape from there. The instructions will guide you through how to choose your size by sewing a mini toile of the bust facing. The pattern also comes with 3 length versions with marked shorten lines.
