Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I’m very pleased to introduce my favourite project of all time: the Garcia Lorca Dress.
Pattern: Cambie dress from Sewaholic!
I cut a size 6, but made several adjustments to the bodice (performed small bust adjustment, lowered the armpit line by one inch, reduced the sleeves in width by one inch and enlarged the waist by half a size). I also reduced the width of the skirt to make it less poufy.
I also blogged about this here
Material Notes
Cotton voile print (fashion fabric) and cotton (lining)

Really sweet dress, I love how you pleated the skirt instead of gathering it. And your shoes are adorable!!!
