Velvet3_large

Description

We chose the crushed velvet for this creation to give it a fuller effect. A regular velvet or any other plain fabric would give you a cleaner line. Experiment with different colors or a trim for the border underneath the bust and end up with a completely different style.

    How would you make this work for people with a tiny bust?

    I’m a bit underwhelmed with the bodice. I wish Burda would get more creative with darts! How about some side darts? Or make the darts whiskered. I dunno… I feel like i keep on seeing the same bodice over and over and over again. :/

    i need help on Danielle! I absolutely hate the sleeves but at 43, I don’t relish going sleeveless. Any suggestions? I have taken the elastic from the sleeves and now need a way to tame the sleeves that isn’t poofy. The fabric is cotton so is a bit stiff. The poof sleeves just aren’t cutting it for me. The fabric is orange goldy ochery batiky. Ugh.

    If I ever make this again, it will be with something super soft so the sleeves drape better.

    Please HELP!

    I love this dress, but the fabrics needed is confusing me a lot, What are the embroidered silk, Satin, & Chiffon used for? If you were to make the dress out of the same fabric would you just add those numbers together and thats how much fabric you need?

    I love this dress, but when I tried to make it sleeveless, I had problems with the facing on the neckline and the armholes. Any advice? I saw the all in one facing tutorial for the azalea dress , but I can’t figure out how to make it work w Danielle because of the darts.
