From French Poetry:

An evolution of the much loved Pleiades pattern, this new version offers 8 options in one pattern: 2 skirt options, with or without bottom ruffle, 4 different sleeves (long, short, tied, lantern) and also a row of covered buttons you can add to the bodice for decoration.

The French Poetry Pleiades 1 dress is flattering for all body shapes with its gathered empire waist. Thanks to the V-shaped cut (much like its sister the Pleiades 2 dress or our already famous Lune dress), it does not add any bulk (and won’t create that dreaded fake tummy effect) but just flows around the body! The V-shaped cut also adds a touch of uniqueness. The Pleiades1  dress pattern will follow you all year round: you can choose long or short sleeves, and mix and match bodices and skirts to follow your imagination. Also, check out the Pleiades 2 dress (another evolution of the much loved Pleiades pattern).

Pleiades 1 is a short dress (above knee) with V neckline, gathers on shoulders and slightly puffy sleeves. Several options available: long or short sleeves, short tied sleeves, ‘lantern’ sleeves, gathered skirt with or without frill in the bottom. Optional decorative buttons can be added under the front V neckline. Zipper closure in the back.
