Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This dress is kinda Star Trek like…. :) I altered Burda pattern #7954. I made the neckline much higher than it originally was and made pointy sleeve things and made a V-shaped back. I put a split in the back too. I’m really happy with the way my dress looks but the neck is a little uncomfortable, maybe I made it just a little too high…
Material Notes
I'm not too sure what this fabric is. Gabardine?

Great minimalist Dress! very sleak, I’d rather say Dior rather than Star trek (in term of references)
