Burda Style For people who sew
Description
My friend Erica wanted the dress that Michael’s Italian girlfriend wears in the Godfather. For this dress, I used a self-drafted pattern, a linen-polyester blend, and pearl snaps.

I ABSOLUTLY love this dress. It gives ME a Johnny Cash vibe!! Beautiful. I love the pattern as well…..I tried a Burda pattern that is similar to this and it was the worst (probably just my sewing ability) ….anyway this is great!
