Burda Style For people who sew
Description
A version of New Look 6723 in emerald green taffeta, with a yellow satin lining on the bodice. I really enjoyed making this dress, and I’m going to wear it out for my birthday next month! It’s a little tight on the bodice but I’m losing weight so should be fine for February (I hope!). There’s a few mistakes, and I took some of the poofiness out of the skirt as I thought the gathering didn’t look too good, but overall I’m happy with how it looks and it was super easy to make.

This is really pretty on you and I like that you took some of the fullness out of the skirt, it is super flattering!
