FIND YOUR SIZE
The Cuff dress is a design with a lot of width. Size range XS-L differs in relation to the Cuff top, with more chest width and under arm curve. Size range XL-3XL are similar to the Cuff top XL-4XL, but still the dress has more chest width.
To get the right Cuff dress attitude use your body measurements for both chest, waist and seat when choosing size. If you've previously made the Cuff top with a perfect fit, we recommend that you use the same size for the dress.

Timeless peace for everyday
The pattern is very easy to follow and easy to sew. I have made few alternations - sleaves longer, bodice shorter, adjusted the hem on the skirt and now I´m very happy with the result and will make some more out of linen and other suitable fabric. I strongly recommend choosing a size smaller than the size chart says - my first muslin version was way to large.

Nice dress with a modern feel
Very good instruction and quite easy to make. I put a taffeta lining in the skirt for a better feel with stockings on. A little on the large side, feels somewhat boxy in heavy fabric, probably better go down one size.

Best gift
Instructions were very thorough and easy to follow

Classic and timeless
It was my third TAL pattern and the pattern and instructions make perfect sense. I decided to go for the XS size even though the size chart advised S. But from previous pattern, I noticed that I am usually between XS and S and this is a roomy design. I picked a washed linen and it’s a perfect for English summer when it’s sunny but never too warm .

Fantastic Pattern!
I really enjoyed sewing up this pattern. It came together easily and looks and fits fantastic! I did make an XL size even though my measurements put me in the bottom end of a 2XL. I have made two dresses so far and have 2 more in the works. Definitely a TNT pattern for me.
