Description

Halloween Ball dress, based on a pattern from Burda magazine (when I find it I’ll post the details). I am hoping it will do for a Chrismas Ball too…

Material Notes

Silk organza for the sleeves, polyester crepe backed satin for the dress, sequined tulle overlays the satin on the bodice. The lace trim on the sleeve cuffs is from a dress purchased at the local antiques store - made around 1919.

    It’s beautiful. Is it from the December 2007 Burda, dress 104?

    This is an elegant dress and it will do for any “ball” , (well in my own opinion). Well done.
