Description

I finally got around to making this stunning knit twist dress from the February 08 issue of Burda magazine. Its twist design is perfect for defining a waist if you’ve got a “straight up and down” figure, ladies! I made a few modifications, though, so read more at http://www.fehrtrade.com/gallery/149/olive-a-twist

    Dearest squerelypoo.you are such a beautiful redhead and it hurts me to see how you accessorised your very glamorous green dress.By the way it is very nicely done and Icomplement you on that,the color is also perfect for you,but,the fishnet black hoserie and the big bulky laced shoes are a defenit« no no» because it takes to much away from the dress,and it does not give it the finishing glamorous touch.You should be wearing naturel color«not whitish» stockings and a tan delicat shoe like a sandal or a high pump ,this would make your legs look longer and show of the dress. maybe a small jewel pin and nice earings would finish the look.Please dont think for a minute that I dont like what you are wearing,It is the stylist in me that made me write you this comment. Congrats.
