Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is my first sewing pattern: the Cam dress! A classic shirt dress with a retro style: it buttons down to the waist and has a side zipper for comfort. There are two sleeves variations: short and 3/4 with cuffs.
The high waist and full gathered skirt reminds me of the style typical of the 50’s.
More details on the blog.
