Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this out of some east african material. It’s some kind of batik, don’t know how they do it.
Nearly no alterations, only left out the middle piece of the bodice. It was nice for the few hot days we had, and now I’m thinking about wearing it with boots and a cardigan, maybe..

I think your choice of fabric makes the dress! I’ve not been much of a fan of this pattern but you have changed my mind :)

I really like your dress. The fabric fits nicely with the design of the Danielle. It also looks like it fits you really well. I want it!
