Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Dress from Burda 12/07.
Changed the pattern. Had to use size 44 for the cups (even too small …) and for the rest only 38.
And I did not do the pleats below the breast.
In the magazin it was with gold sequined cloth and long – to the floor.
I also would recommend to cut the piece that is under the cups (do not know the English word) as one piece. In the pattern it is two pieces which is not necessary and does not look too nice.
My dress is still not finished because I do not have a skirt marker … and I have to have my summer weight that I fit in the cups lol

Stimmt! Oberteil ist schlecht geschnitten. Sogar in Größe 44 passe ich nicht rein :-( …. und sooooo riesig bin ich oben dann eigentlich doch nicht. Ich muss mir n besseren Schnitt für so n Empire-Kleid suchen. Die gefallen mir soooo gut. Ich habe nur oben doppelt gefüttert – unten ist nur ein Futter, was das ganze viel leichter macht.
