This is a odd duck of a project in terms of patterning

Originally I was think the dress was one piece but the top top seem to be separate and a form fitted sailor shirt. >_<

So I'm thinking for my sanity to run the invisible zipper along the side seem but my question is dose it mater which direction it would open. I was thinking of running it open upward and close going down to hid the tab.

The sleeve to me looks like their on long sleeve then another puff sleeve over them and attached to the shoulder seam for both. Does that make sense? I could not for the life of me find stretch fabric in that shade so I'll be cutting the sleeve on a bias to give it a little bit more stretch as well in the cotton fabric I got.
