Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This dress was pretty simple and I really loved the end result being fully lined, slim fitting, front pleats with cute little bow. I ended up making two versions of this dress one using stretch cotton and the second using wool. One for summer and one for winter!
I love this style of dress it turned out really lovely and better than I could have hoped. Also thinking this might make a nice bridesmaid dress so I may need to look out for some material to match this pattern!

These are both beautiful and look so good on you. This dress will make a lovely bridesmaid dress. Have you been to ‘Selective Fine Fabrics’ at Underwood ? I bought my daughter’s wedding dress and bridesmaid fabric there. So much to choose from.

I have been there and I agree they have so much. I went to the summer park fabric shop and bought my bridal lace. That’s so awesome you got your daughters bridal l lace there did you make them yourself? I’m getting my bridal dress made but making the bridesmaids dresses.

Thanks Mary! Hehe I’m glad that you want to make this dress too now its great I def rate it out of vogue patterns. I think there will be plenty more versions to come from me in this dress and the satin fabric sounds like a great idea!
