Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This wearable muslin is based on a dress that I bought a retail store. I really liked the dress I bought made out of denim and thought that I could replicate it. I made the next version longer (the original was so long I stepped on it too much).
The dress has no zipper or closure; I just have to have my hair down when I put it on and it fits nicely on the arms when on.
In these photos, I didn’t press my dress so you can see the lines radiating out from the hanger’s tension point. Oops.
This is a really comfortable summer dress that is breezy.
Material Notes
heavy slubbed mystery fabric, perhaps rayon
