This looks more like the "Alice OP" with short sleeves to me. I own the unaltered version :) https://lolibrary.org/items/aatp-alice-op

Thank you! I didn't choose that one because of the long sleeves and cuff detail, but perhaps there also was a short sleeve version? The measurements are similar apart from the Alice is stated to have a bust of 104cm. This dress had relatively small cup sizes before the alteration even though the back is gathered and has room. I'll add that link to the listing though, much appreciated.

I dont know if there is a short sleeve version but I doubt it. It looks to me like it has been altered! If you look closely the different laces and bows from the original cuffs seem to be repurposed into short sleeves! I understand why, too, the sleeves are too short on me and they are a little constricting with the way that they're constructed! :)

No way that the sleeves have been altered post manufacture, I just ran upstairs to check it in a good light to be sure. The narrow lace edging is identical to the edging around the collar, the brown ribbon bow is identical to the bows on the main dress, the torchon lace is an exact pattern match but in a both-sides-finished format, the interior seam allowances are professionally overlocked in an identical manner and thread colour to the main dress, it's all beautifully neat and no sign at all of any subsequent alteration (I sew myself). I think it must have been either a short sleeve version of the Alice, or an undocumented different version?

Like I said, it looks to me like the original cuffs have been repurposed for alteration! So there would be original lace and ribbons to use. Could have been done by a professional sewist. I'm just saying that it is a *possibility*! :) Would be cool to find out if there is an official short sleeved version! Because all other details are identical to the Alice OP I own :)

That's it!! I had no idea there was a matching apron, I shall update the listing. Many thanks.

Actually, looking at that listing, I don't think it was a set with the dress, I think they just accessorised with it. So it was a short sleeve version. Cool.
