Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This dress was made almost 2 years ago from a burda design. I wore it yesterday to a funeral. The jersey fabric reminds me so much of the Xmas season based on how it sparkles. It has a mixture of red, silver, greenish blue and black.
I altered the design by placing two straps that is gathered at the top and back and it falls slightly off the shoulders. I lengthen it a bit because I wanted to look so modest and classy. Gathers are at right side.
I tend to shy away from sparkling fabrics cause I think it ain’t my thing but I decided to share it anyway. Hope you all liked it
