Burda Style For people who sew
Description
An everyday denim dress inspired by the Cruise 2012 catalogue from Louis Vuitton (starring Arizona Muse, so that’s where the name of this project derives from). For my version I used burdastyle 05/2001 no. 104 which looked rather nice and simple, but needed several alterations (taking in side and back seams, shortening the hem + I added 3/4-sleeves). The white topstitching along the neckline of the dress is hand-sewn as well as the patch pockets.
First time…
… using topstitching thread
… drafting a sleeve to match an existing dress pattern
