Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Hurrah second garment! Knowing that I wanted to try the Jakob next, I mostly got inspiration from this button-up this guy was wearing in the front row of a NY Fashion Week show and from the nude/purple/bruised-skin palette of Lanvin S/S ‘09. Again, I really slimmed it down so I wouldn’t be swimming in the fabric and I also narrowed the collar. Though I think next time, I’ll also lessen the length of the collar point. The white buttons are my favorite!
Material Notes
Purple Poly-Cotton fabric, white semi-pearlescent buttons

I like your shirt a lot but also your tryptic photograph, reminds me of Gilbert and George’s song ‘bend it, bend it, just a little bit’ Great Art direction!
