Description

That’s the dress I’ve made for my garduation night. I followed he pattern from Burda 03/09, Nr. 121 and changed some small details, like the darts in the front or the ribbon in the back. My straps snapped at the end of the dance, but we wanted to go home anyway, so this wasn’t a big deal ^^
And after making this, I promised myself to never sew with organza again…-.- horrible fabric

Material Notes

Organza for the colorchanging effect, Satin and some ribbons, one zipper

Intermediate
