Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is a simple light dress I made just for a knock about day. It is made of a beautiful cotton batik material. I made the bodice with pin-tucks for added detail and used some coconut buttons for a bit of pop.
The skirt is a simple A line. I also made a belt to go with it out of the same material. I got a buckle in the exact colour to go with it.

This is gorgeous! What a lovely dress! I have to say, though… I’m awfully jealous of the sunshine you’re enjoying in these photos!

Fantastic! I love the pin tucks – they go really well with the batik print.
