Summer floral dress - McCALL's M7959

I recently finished sewing another easy wearing summer dress and it's already gotten lots of wear. The fabric is this floral linen from Mood and the pattern is McCall's M7959. I sewed the dress length and I added about 8 inches to the length. I also used elastic to create a slightly blouson waist. I added a lining using cotton voile to the skirt half of the dress and the top of the lining is sewn to form the elastic casing. The lining ends above the side slits, which is just above the knee. This dress in linen is super comfy for summer. It also has a slightly tropical vibe, even though the print is not really tropical.
