Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I couldn’ t find a well-fitting nice dress for my prom. So I decided to sew and design my own dress. I’ve never sewed before, so this is my first project (I got help from my mom with the zipper though). I wanted to create the impression of innocence first, but with the vintage-touch and the low-cut back it seems kind of .. wicked (do you say so..?!?)
Material Notes
A satin-glossed light fabric and lace
