Burda Style For people who sew
Description
A simple chocolate Zoe dress for work! I lengthened the bodice and the skirt piece too and took the waist loops out. And like a number of other members I put two darts in the front so it wasn’t so baggy -I would recommend doing this if you are making this dress!

Mmmm, chocolate… Great fit. I really like the alterations you’ve made. Excellent dress! How much did you lengthen the skirt and the bodice by? Also, are you particularly tall, or was it just to achieve a different fit that you lengthened the bodice?
