Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This year I’ve decided to be the Little Red Riding Hood for Halloween 2011! It turned out great, especially paired with my boyfriend as the Big Bad Wolf.
For my costume I pattern drafted and sewed my red hooded cape, the black corset bodice and gathered skirt.
As for my boyfriend, though I made the pattern for his body suit, I am proud to say he sewed it (with the serger, which now he thinks is a lot funner than operating the sewing machine ha ha ha!) He also made everything else such as his granny hat, fur patches and tail.
Hope everyone had a Great Halloween!!

Really really cute, I love the lace on the top and the bow on the skirt. It’s stunning.
