Description
This is my first dress and my first BurdaStyle pattern. I am very pleased with it. I didn’t do any modifications because I like it as is except for adding a pair of vertical darts to the front for a better fit under the bust. Lining up the plaid pattern was almost my undoing but was definitley worth the effort.
Material Notes
Plaid 50% Wool Blend

Wow I really love this version of the Zoe. That fabric is perfect. Would also be good for work, but probably a little short. Love it!
