Burda Style For people who sew
Description
The moment I saw this dress on the August issue, I fell in love!
The black fabric I used has some texture and makes the dress quite formal so I added the sequins appliqus on the shoulders for a little bit more fun, just like the original one.
More details and photos on my blog.
Material Notes
Black fabric: not sure what it is but feels like very heavy cotton piqu.
Fully lined with grey bemberg lining.

pearls and sequins appliqus.

J’adore ! Moi aussi j’ai eu un coup de coeur pour cette robe et ta version donne encore plus envie de la faire ! J’adore particulièrement le détail des sequins aux épaules, le petit détail girlie qui fait craquer ;)

Merci Marjo. Je crois qu’on a été beaucoup à craquer pour cette robe (avec ou sans manches). C’est un des patrons de Burda que je préfère.
