Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I wanted to make this dress long time ago, but I could not find any fabric for the lining.
I actually prefer to use light weight cotton in the place of real lining fabrics, especially in the summer. Maybe is marine blue not in the mode at the moment?
I was already a little bit frustrated, but than I have finally found very thin satin and decided to use this one.
Yesterday was very hot here in Holland and I had to drive my car in this heat, so please excuse me that the dress looks a little bit messy on the pictures. No pattern was used.

Thank you Milkyway. The fabric is printed. I bought a piece during the stoffenspektakel in Deventer I liked it a lot.

I love the way you have used the border print in the bodice and trimmed it with contrasting piping. Really nice.
