Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This idea had been brewing for quite some time.
After finding on of my favourite dress patterns EVER in no. 101 from burdamagazine 02/2011 I finally got it done! The bodice is a really nice fit and easy to alter, which I love, because it makes so very different ideas as this one and my Asymmetrical Dress possible from just one rather simple pattern!
I obviously changed the neckline region and added a strip of the sheer fabric at the hem.
If you’ve got a minute, maybe you might be interested in taking a little stroll over to my blog ? There might be cookies over there. That’s not a promise. Actually it’s probably a lie, but, you know… nothing’s impossible :)

Absolutely awesome twist on the basic dress! I really like the combination of sheer and solid fabric you have going here.
