Good, clear pattern, not size inclusive
This is a great beginner pattern with lots of different styling options, which is nice.
However, I am really disappointed that you purchase one size at a time, especially as it costs twice the average pattern cost and those patterns always come with multiple sizes. You should be able to purchase an Adult package with all the sizes, a Kids package with all the sizes and a Tween package with all the sizes.
But my biggest disappointment is that it is not all size inclusive. I bought this pattern to make a class leotard for myself. I am an adult woman, size 8 pants, 38" bust. I am well within average sizing for women, but the biggest available pattern size is several inches too small and I had to do a bunch of work to adjust it, with varying degrees of success.
This seems like a vestige of old, unhealthy ballet stereotypes. I would ask that you adjust your pattern sizes to be far more inclusive.

Pefect but expensive
The leotard pattern is very good, but for me, who is from Brazil, it is quite expensive because our money is undervalued.
I did the first test and found it perfect. The leotard looked noble and had a perfect fit.

Stretch base
Excellent instruction
But I didn’t read the info as I thought it was a proper pattern didn’t think I’d have to download it and then try and print it to scale which at present I don’t seem to have got it right
