Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made the skirt of the dress with the fabric of a huge old dress that I bought for a couple bucks at a thrift store. I added the stretchy green velvety material for the bodice, used ribbon for the straps, and hand-sewed gathered netting around the bottom hem.
