Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I bought this sari on ebay but since I was not going to wear it as it is I decided to make a dress out of it. I thought the danielle was a good choice since the hemline is not very curved. I reduced all the remnant curvature of the hemline making the front skirt panel a bit wider.
Material Notes
A fake-silk sari bought on ebay from India, lining
