I loved this dress when I seen it in the burda magazine, so I thought I would give it a try. The directions were not always very clear, especially on the hem, so I scraped the directions about half way through and guessed on how it should be done. It seemed to work out. I almost never wear strapless dressed so I added straps I made from braiding the leftover fabric.

I had problems with the instructions too, but sadly, that’s something I’m used to by now. I really like your version of the dress! :)
