Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I got to attend a very festal ceremony as an avec. I decided to make a dark purple evening gown for the celebration and here’s the result. The gown is made with the same methods as my hot hot heat dress (though the hem is longer) and no patternt was used.
Material Notes
the fabric is mixture of cotton and spandex, satin, invisible zipper

As usual, your creation is great! I love the shape of this dress, very feminine, nice and sober details as the satin ruban. I think you wear it perfectly. Once you decide to published your own patterns, I think I’ll be one of your most cheerful fan! Bravo Madame !
