This is a tutorial for a dress I made in Mexico. The dress shown is size XS, but the tutorial can be used to make any size dress.

Because this pattern doesn’t contain any bust shaping, it is a good pattern to use for children and women with small busts.

EDIT: I edited the pattern on 3/4 because the bust shaping was wrong previously. If you printed the pattern before 3/4/09, please re-print it with the corrected shaping.
EDIT: I moved this pattern to my blog, and it now includes a chart for the arrow stripe and more detailed instructions on making the pattern fit you.

NOTE: A possible way to modify this pattern for a larger bust would be to cross over the two front panels and then try it on and knit the triangular insert at the point where they overlap.
