Burda Style For people who sew
Description
The cover dress on Burdastyle 09/2010, in mustard ponte knit. The design has really unusual piecing and reminds me of those Herve Leger bandage dresses that have been so iconic since the 80’s.

Great dress! The color is very cool and the fit looks great. When I made my version, I ended up sewing the sleeve bands in a similar way — seemed to make more sense.

Such a beautiful dress ! I’ve been thinking of making this one, but wasn’t sure (I was afraid of the “big shoulders” effect). But your version is inspiring ! This is a beautiful, very flattering dress.
