McCall's 2549 - early 1970 vintage dress - nearly done

I have been busy modifying this McCall's 2549 1970's pattern for my size. (Because the original size is 14)

At the beginning to sew, I was a little doubt of this pattern as I thought it was not like images.
Like this.

However I realised this looks long waist part. Of course, I had to adjust the waist part as well!

Then I just done to shorter.

As this is a trial, I don't care how I could mess.. So just shortened.

And it looks better.. Immediately after I modify the copied pattern of front and back.

Now if I put sleeve part, how will be looks like..

wow..

I amazed my self.. looks very nice.. I maybe could use this for office outfit.

And back.  As I forgot to cut in the middle, It looks a little hmm.. but it's ok.

This dress's pattern is very nice! (I have change my minds!)
Now I am thinking about I have to use collar?
Maybe no. Using this patten, neck and front open part, it can be used interfacing and I just need to make neck with interfacing. it will be nice. or maybe I could modify as 'V' neck style.

At the result, I have shorten 1 inch to all parts. Quite interesting and learned which part I have to care when shorten the pattern from bigger size.

Phew... So happy.. :)

Have a nice evening!
