Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I used an old pattern from Burda 10/98, #121, and extended the bottom to make a dress. I made the neck line wider than the original. The neck line was also horizontaly divided and the bottom part ruffeled. I added rossettes and the belt.

Looks gergeous. The roses make it look like Haute Couture. Great idea!
