Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This vintage Vogue pattern features a mid-calf or evening length dress, with four or five-tiered skirt gathered into close-fitting, high-waisted bodice, has wide shoulder straps, back belt, tie and zipper closing and pockets in size seams. I cut out a size 10. The pattern is from 1977, which I bought off ebay last year.
SO happy with the result!
