Instructions:
1. Take your measurements to determine the correct size of the dress pattern to use. Measure your bust, waist, and hips, and compare them to the size chart on the pattern to find the right size for you.

2. Cut out the pattern pieces according to your size, making sure to follow the cutting lines and notches on the pattern. You will typically have pieces for the bodice, skirt, sleeves (if applicable), and any other details like pockets or collars.

3. Pin the pattern pieces to the fabric and cut out the fabric pieces following the pattern. Make sure to transfer any markings or notches from the pattern to the fabric pieces.

4. Sew the bodice pieces together, following the instructions on the pattern. This will involve sewing the darts, seams, and any other details like collars or pockets.

5. Sew the skirt pieces together, following the instructions on the pattern. This will involve sewing the side seams and any other details like pleats or gathers.

6. Attach the bodice to the skirt, matching the waistline and sewing the pieces together. Press the seam open with an iron.

7. Install the zipper or buttons on the back of the dress, following the instructions on the pattern.

8. Hem the bottom of the dress to your desired length, using a straight or rolled hem.

9. Try on the dress and make any necessary adjustments for fit and length.

10. Press the dress with an iron to give it a finished look and remove any wrinkles.
