Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this simple blouse for school, a sort of “uniform” to wear with skirts and high waisted jeans. My favorite TV series (Mad Men, what else?) inspired me.
I’m still working on perfecting the pattern though and I plan to make more, in lots of different colors.
I’m also thinking about making one in velvet (maybe a deep reed or greenblue) for winter.

I love how sometimes you can notice on mad men, that the women have the same dresses and blouses in different colors.
Yours looks smart in that it’s classic and comfortable. I love it! so nice.

Thank you :) Yes, but I made the pattern myself, it isn’t too hard to do. I made a muslin version of the blouse to adjust the pattern before I made the actual blouse. I guess you can also use a burda style blouse pattern and add your own peter pan collar.
