M7714 is a pattern for partially-lined dresses, with a fitted princess seam bodice, V-neck or rounded neckline options, and a straight or pleated, full skirt. It also has a separate waistband and the option of making it sleeveless or using short sleeves. I went for view A - sleeveless, V-neck and with the full, pleated skirt.
I went down one size from my measurements in the bust and waist based on the finished garment measurements, and just needed to lengthen the bodice (a standard adjustment for me) to get a nice fit.
The instructions are succinct (like most commercial patterns!), but clear and easy to follow.
