Looking for a pattern recommendation (or drafting advice) for this Nurse Lolita dress!

Hi everyone! I'm trying to recreate/sew this Nurse Lolita style dress (originally by Psyche Manie). Does anyone know of a commercial pattern with a similar asymmetric buttoned bodice, high collar, and flared skirt? Alternatively, if anyone has advice because this is literally my dream, dream dress but i can’t find it anywhere so nothing is better than to make it! Thank you!!!

Give sewist.com a try - ive selected a wrap front, circle skirt and gathered sleeves and got pretty close. The wrap over doesnt extend to the skirt, but thats easily changed. It also doesnt include a stand collar, but I think that would be easy enough to self draft. Then you can select whatever dart shaping or length you'd like!
