Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I cannot believe this was posted by Burda as well!
But there we go, my take on the sheath geometric dress.
As soon as I saw the dress in teh september issue, I fell in love with it. I liked it so much, I even bought the very same Rupert Sanderson shoes to go with it!
If the Burda style project does not make it clear enough, can I stress how much taller and slimmer this dress makes you look?! Perfec geometrics, perfect fit.
There is not a lot more to add, apart that I believe it looks a lot sexier in pastel colours rather than dark fabrics.
Good luck, the sleeves can be a challenge!
Material Notes
ice blue crepe, lining, zip an dpearl button. Decoration flower by House of Fraser

They say red heads should wear green. I honestly looked, but nothing interesting in that colour, so I ended up with nearly the same shade as in the magazine project! Many thanks, happy Christmas!

Your version is much better, and the color is perfect.
