I'm curious what pattern you used for the three dresses, as they are classic Sasha style. I tried the Migros dress this summer, and made the sleeveless version as I wasn't brave enough to try the sleeves. As a novice sewer I'm always on the lookout for good patterns.
Fran, I've started from the Mirgos pattern, but I did not like the fit. It was too big for my taste.
Use the pattern as a guide but reduce by 1/4" the side lines ( from front and back) and use less fabric for the skirt. For the sleeves reduce by 1/4" from the side which has to be connected to the front of the bodice. The new line will be your cutting line. Seam allowance is again 1/4".
I'll take a picture from the adapted pattern over the original to have a better idea.
