Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This wrap came into my mind when trying to think of some elegant ways for shoppers to prance around on Halloween night without having to get dressed up in a full blown costume which then reminded me of the Vanderbilts. One Halloween, when Vanderbilt Jr. threw a party {at the Biltmore house in North Carolina} in the 20s, it went a little awry and many of his drunk and crazy guests went to the basement and did a little painting job on the walls. The mural of a hodgepodge of tipsy stick figures is still there in the empty room called the “Halloween Room.”
In the 1920s, when parties were big, people didn’t necessarily dress up as a character for Halloween, but they BECAME the character.
This Wrap, a little dramatic and embellished with a ruffle of petals, is perfect to keep you warm on a crazy Halloween night with your friends and adventures. It is made with women’s shirting.

sometimes I tend to shock people in my awesomeness. It is just too much for them to handle.
