Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Though autumn is here (at least in Finland) I’d like to show you the ruffly swimming suit I made for this summer. It’s strapless and made of stripey lycra.

Adorably simple and classic design! A must for next summer!

Very nice, I like the retro touch of it and you found a very nice lycra fabric (the only one I see is boldly printed with flowers or elsewhere ugly…)

Very pretty! I like the ruffles. Thanks for the idea. I m going to make black with white ruffles..(luckily still summer here and chance to go swimming in the river)

Such a pretty swimsuit. Love the combination of the colours, stripes and ruffles. And lovely pictures as well.

This is not the most practical swimsuit (it wouldn’t be the best choice for swimming championships…) but serves well when it comes to lying on the beach or a stoical dip in a lake.

Hi marry, does that stay up because of the lycra? just wondering how practical a strapless swimsuit is :) it’s gorgeous too, love the ruffle!
