DISCLAIMER: I had access to the Vivace as a pattern tester without cost in exchange for feedback on the fit and instructions. I produce sewing content independently from pattern brands and share my unique way of sewing with you. I don’t necessarily follow instructions rigidly. My opinions are honest, especially around fit and sewing techniques.
