New Dress: Butterick B4443

I've been remiss in posting, mostly because of an extended spell of depression, which affected my motivation and creative inspiration. Last week-end I finally sat down to do some sewing for myself, which I hadn't done for a while. I made a dress from Buttericks B4443 pattern:

My fabric was from Lizzy House Constellations. This was a fairly straightforward and quick pattern to make. The only adjustment I made was having to add extra width at the hips for the skirt because of my wide hips, so I created darts at the back so the skirt matched up with the bodice. I'm really happy with how it turned out.
