Great resources and instructions, wish I had more on grading between sizes and how that impacts facings. Neckline is low for my frame (maybe because I’m petite).

Fantastic to finally have a pattern that fits my boobs but doesn’t drown me 👍
I got the Appleton dress as part of a Guthrie & Ghani kit. The dress was easy to make and the instructions very clear, it fits well even though I am not that curvy. The only issue I have is the ties tangling up with everything in the wash - need to knot first!
I normally sew dresses with a fuller shape through the hips, but my teacher daughter needed professional dresses and I let her pick the pattern. Disclosure - I hadn't sewn a knit garment in decades. This went together super easy. I measured carefully and didn't make a toile because we were short on time. It came out beautifully. She loves it and I will be making a couple for myself and my other daughter.
I’ve tried other wrap dresses but this dress is it! It fits like a glove as if it was actually fit to my body which I can barely do as a beginner sewist. It felt like the fit pattern was designed for my plus size body which is very difficult. I can’t wait to make more Appleton dresses and I’m excited to use my other cashmerette patterns.
