Burda Style For people who sew
Description
What a simple dress to make and wear! I thought that it needed a little extra something, so I was inspired by the “space age” look of the shoulders and added that “Mork from Ork” inverted triangle applique. :)

Good idea to add the illusion of a v-neck. Very cute and flattering!

Perfect color! The idea of playing with the neckline is awesome. Now I want to make this dress too.

Indeed! It looks much better this way!

I agree with all the others: the triangle you added makes your dress very different and gives it much more shape than a regular Anda.

that triangles really gives the whole dress a new shape. great addition!

I was going to skip making this dress because I need a “V” neck in most things but this has inspired me. Great idea!

That is so cute, I never saw that potential in the Anda… I think I will have to try it. I like your photographs too, you look so proud! Great Job! (nice shoes too!)
