Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I think this is maybe the closest I have come to what really is me… it’s black. Shiny. Satin. Made of about 1,5 meters of satin it’s also cheap. I added a couple of “pearls” at the wrist. I also drafted the sleeve myself. It fits quite well, but not a dress I can dance a lot in to put it that way.
I didn’t quite like how the skirt looked (probably added too much fabric – it was originally supposed to be a quite tight dress), so I added a bubbled hem just to… fix it. Hehe.
Oh yeah, and my house is red.
