Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Vogue 8723, again. Almost as frustrating as the first time I made this dress! But this time I had other problems, as the seams were for some reason IN my pockets and I’m still really confused haha. Thankfully it’s all black so it’s very forgiving!
I also have a theory that because it is very black it also makes me look like a blimp on some angles! I think it looks best worn with a coloured belt…
Somewhat more on my blog
And of course my individual page links don’t really work on here, so hooray for dodgy navigation! :D

Hi! I was at spotlight a couple of weeks ago and recognised you from your blog, we chatted briefly about this dress. Well I have finally got around to taking some pics and put them up on my profile if you’d like to have a look. ps I also love your piggy dress with the pleats!

That is one hot little black dress. Your figure is exemplified, you photograph amazingly well and I’m jealous of the gorgeous colour of your skin. Oh, and your glasses ROCK. Killer!
