Vintage Simplicity dress

Hi there! The dress I quickly mentioned yesterday is finished and I'm so happy with the result :) The pattern is this Simplicity dress, as you can see the number is missing and there's no copyright but the design is definitely from the 40's, non?

I made a mix between view 2's neckline and view 1's short puffed sleeves and drafted the skirt myself. Let me explain what happened: I made a muslin and the pattern's skirt just didn't work so I drafted a simple slightly flared skirt with gathers. I didn't put the ruffles either because there's already some gathering at the sleeves and it would have been too much.
Despite making a muslin you'll see that the fit is not perfect but I think I'm slowly getting there^^, I hope the next one will be even better! For example this time the lapped zipper is much cleaner than with the previous McCall yellow dress and I was able to avoid a wonky waist by measuring and making sure both sides of the front and back remained similar.
The inside is simply finished with pinking, this technique worked well with the fabric which is simple dark green cotton.
