Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I took two patterns and put them together, Simplicity 3640 (Pants E, no pocket) and Burda Easy 8423 (Top C without collar). I made the pants a little longer and cut the shirt collar wider after garment was finished so it could hang off the shoulders more. It was super easy and fun. There was a lot of trying on and pinning involved since i don’t yet have a dress form. Maybe 3 hours start to finish.
Material Notes
Used a stretchy velour material so that it is easy to step in and out yet does not stretch out of place.

This is very cute. I am scared to wear velour because I have seen some very hidious outfits in this material. But yours is very flattering and now I am reconsidering. And the color is georgeous! Not that Cerelean Blue or Dirty Pink colors.
