Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Based on Butterick 5559, I’m calling this my Duck and Cover Dress for a couple reasons. One, it looks like a bomb going off with all those fancy pleats. Two, based on how hot this dress looks on everyone who makes it, it’s best for observers to run and hide because they’ll get blown away by the sexinesssssss.

I love the color you have chosen. I have this pattern and I just bought fabric to make it. Hope it will look sexy on me too.
