McCall's 5492 (1977) dress with shaped yoke

Listening: Soundgarden

I had originally planned to use this mix of black and yellow prints with Simplicity 1080, the Dottie Angel dress, but never got around to it and then realized that I've ended up goodwilling all my 1080s except one, so I guess I'm not that into the pattern.  I still like the prints, though:


So obviously I should use them with another pattern.  What do I have that lends itself well to fabric-mixing?


With the skirt pieced?


This is technically my size but I always need an upper back width adjustment.

Yup (compared to Simplicity 9880, which I've already altered a lot):


Front yoke doesn't look too bad, though.


Yeah, OK:
