I made this dress for my wonderful flatmate, Astrid.
I love this pattern – Burda #7829 I have used it a lot. I made the straps tie ones and added some lace around the neckline.

Such a lovely dress! I like everything you did – the tying straps, the lace around the neckline, and I think that the design of the dress is appropriate for the fabric. Nice job!

Oh so pretty! Nice choice of details and material.
Btw, I thought Astrid was a scandinavian name, my mum’s aunt was called Astrid, interesting to find it in Hungary!
