    These are the materials you need for this project.

    Fold the piece of fabric in four and draw out your measurements. Use a curve ruler to get the perfect curve on your dress. To understand more about cutting out a dress and sewing it perfectly visit the link below http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/an-easy-simple-dress Don't cut the bottom straightly, draw almost a round shape on the bottom. This is how the whole piece looks like after drawing down my measurements.

    Cut according to the outlines.

    Take a long piece of elastic according to the size of your chests circumference. Cut it in half.

    Place it where you want. I'm placing it on the upper chest area. Keep the elastic stretched as you sew it. This helps you to get perfect folds for your dress

    This is how it looks from the front and back after attaching the elastic.
