Description

I made this dress using the burda style coat’s bodice. I modified the neckline to be lower, and took in a few inches so it fits in the body better. I added a little triangle cut out on the side to add an interesting element and a bit of surprise. The skirt is a half circle skirt I drafted myself. I love skater style dresses:)
