Burda Style For people who sew
Description
For this dress I used a light cotton voile, which is really light and airy to wear during the warmer weather but also equally as warm when you go into the over air-conditioned buildings (which make you wanna put on a coat cause its so flipping cold!)
The pattern I used for this was new look 6731. I used the waist tie pattern peice as the collar and attatched it to the neck so I could have a bow.
