Burda Style For people who sew
I am attending an Oscars party (Feb. 26th) where the preferred dress is formal. I want to sew a full-length gown! Anybody have a suggested BurdaStyle pattern for an Oscars-party-worthy dress?
Limitations: I’m no better than an Advanced Beginner, so nothing complex. And, I’m chesty, so I don’t want anything strapless or slit to the bellybutton.
Otherwise, any fabric content and style is welcome!
Thanks for advice, ladies and gents.
