Girly cocktail, anyone?

Hello, pink!  I’m starting the Cocktail(Dress).

I think I will end up making some kind of S/M hybrid, putting the ease of the garment somewhat between the measurements for these two sizes.  I’m ok with some negative ease in the bust, but I don’t want this hugging my tummy and hips in an unflattering fashion, so I’ll just modify as necessary.  Hooray for top-down garments you can try on as you go!

So far this pattern looks like it is as carefully planned and written as the BlueSand Cardigan, so I expect an easy journey.
