I made Franzi!!! I wanted to have a vest but I thought I am not good on it when I tried one on in H&M. I realized that my upper body is too thin and my hight is too small so vest is too big in size and length. So I used Franzi pattern but I printed it out 83% and used 38size. It is quite small but wearable and fits me very nicely! I am very happy about it! Lining fabric is kimono fabric.

wow your franzi is great! i made one too for myself. i’m a bit petite as well, as i’m asian. i made size 34 and i’m surprised that it turns out a bit too snug for me. usually burdastyle size is always too big, but not this one.
