Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Two years ago my friends and I were looking at a cosmetics catalog and we saw a dress. I said “I can make it”. No one but one believed me:) I made a scarf dress for that friend and then I made six of it for the others:)) This is the dress I made for my sister.
It is really simple. How I made it can be seen from the last photo. I used two scarves and sewed the two opposite sides. It is fun to make it!!

I love the dress and I am trying to recreate it but I just had a small question. What are the diagonal lines across of the squares? are they where you also sewed the scarves together? So did you sew the scarves in 4 places is what I am trying to ask. Thanks in advance and great job on the dress!

thank you! I sewed the scarves in 2 places (from the diagonal lines across of the squares). The other lines (88cm) are to show the size of the scarves. If I am not still clear, let me know. I can add another photo. Happy sewing:D

Thank you. But I don’t know how to put up a how to:( I am adding a new photo to show the size and the sewed parts. I wrote the length of the sides. The two lines on the scarves are the sewed parts. I didn’t write the lenght of the back ant the front because it’s up to you. I hope it will help.
