Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made my living as a classical musician, which means that I pretty much have a wardrobe stuffed full of black dresses. I’ve never made one, so I thought that when one of my long dresses finally died I would give it a try! This is Vogue 8827, made in a black peachskin. The instructions were not the greatest, but I’m really pleased with my results! I have more on my blog here

That is beautiful! It looks as if it will be very comfortable to perform in but still look elegant.
