With me wearing it, it IS a sofa.
Hee... hee... Just kidding, I don't have body-image issues. I like the dress. I've worn worse things.
Anyway, a couple of technical highlights following.
Instead of sewing the v-neck in one continuous stitch, I did it shoulder-to-front on one side, then repeat on the other. No puckers or bunches like I used to get! Although, still have that pointy dart issue.

The fabric probably wasn't the best choice. It leaves needle holes, as you can see here (the white dots are the holes from the stitches):
I hemmed it with straight stitch because the fabric is not blind-stitch friendly. (Well, okay, fine... I didn't feel like blind stitching by hand and haven't figured out how to use the machine's blind stitch correctly.)
Okay... probably need to study now.
That's not a bad dress at all. I was thinking a nice beaded, coral/red necklace would be good to complete the look. If you are feeling like it of course.
