   1) Take body measurements and trace a pattern that looks like this. The sleeves area of the back part should be narrower for a sexier effect.
   
   2)Sew dart. Front piece only.
   
   3)Sew sleeves. Remember: Snip before folding, for a cleaner finish.
   
   4) Sew both sides of dress and attach a side zipper.

   5) Fold necklines and sew, leaving allowance for the string to pass through. [String: you can make one out of the same fabric as the dress or use ribbon or other available strings.]
