Notes I used a viscose jersey, with a little bit or elasthane
For the sleeves I replaced part of it with a synthetic mousseline fabric. It has 3D fabric flowers on it.

Alterations: as usual for this pattern I lowered the armholes 1cm , took in the wrists by 2. Cm.
I lengthened it 2 cms.

For this design I altered the neckline,
Sleeves: I cut the sleeves pattern into 2, slashed into the pattern from the bottom a few places to spread it, and spreading it to at least the double of the original circumference. This I gather and add back to the lower part of the sleeves and voila

Update: this is not a good idea, don’t make it with organza. Even with puff sleeves, that was not enough, the organza shreds around the arm cycle unfortunately

    Attention, the garment is seam slipping at the arm cycle! if anyone makes this with organza sleeves: the give in the arm cycle is not enough even with the puff sleeves. If I remake it I need longer sleeves and a little larger to have a lot of movement, or remove completely the cuffs so it doesn’t compromise the movement.
