Burda Style For people who sew
Description
My friend Nadia wanted to try and sew her first dress and I offered to help her. She liked the Shakira pattern but she decided she wanted to make it sleeveless and without a collar & buttons. She bought this beautiful fabric at a market near Paris. And the black bias gives it a Chinese feel.
