Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this dress from a vintage dress I got long time ago. I liked the fabric of the dress, but the style,,, did not like it at all! It was too big for me anyway.
So, I separated the top from the skirt, and remade that part and made it high-waist. Special thanks to maryy! I used her how-to to make the top. I haven’t finished the back yet just because I didn’t have a zipper/buttons at home…
Hope this still fits well on me after the baby is born :)

It is such a beautiful dress you look fantastic in it – and I know it’s going to look just as good on you once your baby is born!
