The Eleonora Dress is very cute (I love your version) but agree the pattern is quite expensive so I bought the Willa Dress by Rosie Caldwell which was released a few weeks before the Eleonora dress and is practically identical but cheaper. It also has nice details like a skirt hem facing, which I think looks very professional, and she has a sew along for it on her KZbin channel. Not sure how it compares to the Eleonora in exact details but the finished dresses look really similar and the video is really clear and helpful.
