Leopard print and puffy sleeves were no-nos for me for a long time. But after seeing it season after season, the spots have grown on me and the moment I saw the sleeves on burdastyle magazine 12-2010-102, I just had to try it. I made this in size 38, my usual size without adding the seam allowance. So here’s the Never say never dress. More info on my blog http://sewconvert.wordpress.com/2010/12/31/new-year-new-dress/
Light weight cotton, poly lining, huge snap buttons

I wanted to make a dress just like this, with puff sleeves and a wrap v-neck! Although I probably can’t rock the leopard print as well as you do! It looks great, thanks for posting :)

Wow, great job! Adore leopard print, but must admit that I also had a puffy sleeve phobia! Not any more though – fabulous dress:)
