What I'm working on now

My homework for pattern making class is to design 2 dresses, one day dress and one evening or cocktail dress.  Here's my current sketch with swatches of the fabrics I plan to use.





After making a muslin of the day dress (the pink one on the right), I decided to switch out the v-neck for a boat neck.  I also chose to go with a center v-dart instead of the princess seams.  Here's a shot of the muslin - note that the skirt needs to be lengthened.  It's a little bit controversial at the current length.








What do you think of the changes?  Should I stick with the sketch?
