Burda Style For people who sew
Description
A dress I made to go to a friends wedding reception. The top half is inspired by a dress that I used to own and the bottom half is an adapted version of the Marie Skirt. This is lined and rather than having a popper at the neck as with the Mock Up version I have extended the neck piece into long ties.

Wonderful fabric, where did you get it? The dress looks nice too, but it’s hard to see how it looks like on these pictures… :D
