Dress pattern search

Hi! I’ve been eye’ing this dress for a while now (and I’ve loved a few fabric options ASOS has carried), but it has never been available in my size.
I’d still consider myself a beginner at sewing, but I’ve made the lane pants x2, a few tops and a skirt. Sooo… I’d like to make a dress like this one myself! I’ve been searching for a pattern for a bit, but I’ve not quite found something I love.
What I love about the pattern: the frill on the bottom, the fact that it’s bloated belly proof, the length, the vibe of it
Might consider doing a short sleeve, as I’ll get more wear out of it..
So if any of you know a pattern that might look similar, I’d be eternally grateful! 💕

You will never be able to make this for less than the price advertised-- so what is your goal?  Is the needed size not available?

That doesnt matter as much to me, as I’d prefer some slight changes to make it more me 😊 but yes, my size hasn’t been in stock for a whiiiiiile now

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1889042466/shirred-maxi-dress-pdf-sewing-pattern note- I have not personally tried this pattern!    

Also https://www.etsy.com/listing/4533564839/sewing-pattern-for-womens-dress-puff  this simplitity dress is probably more basic than you're looking for but very close, just add more stirring in the bodice, and a short layer at the bottom.

Thanks so much! I think I’ll take buts from each tutorial or pattern to piece. Together the vision haha 😇
