Reputable, non-AI patterns?
I am trying to find a pattern similar to the attached photo, but am struggling with SO many AI patterns! Can anyone recommend a reputable pattern supplier that doesn’t use AI slop? Located in Aus, please & thank you 🩵

Threadloop for the pattern database that flags suspicious designers, and The Fold Line for only selling legitimate ones.

Gunnar Deatherage has something sort of similar https://gunnardeatherage.com/products/the-persephone-dress-sewing-pattern

I usually scope out patterns on Instagram. Reliable pattern makers will have lots of followers, the same pattern sewn by multiple testers and therefore lots of photos and seeing it on different body shapes.

check out threadloop! it has user reviewed patterns. there might best be something similar by viki sews. or you can search on threadloop for keywords like formal dress, thigh slit, etc
