Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This dress is my gift to my girlfriend who lives 9000km away from me.
Original pattern is Vogue V2903.
It is a very difficult construction. I would not recommend this pattern for beginners.
I used heavy cotton. A light cotton would not provide the desired shape of the dress.
Below is a light petticoat for everyday life.
Material Notes
heavy Cotton, Petticoat fabric

Maybe it’s heavy cotton, but on your pics the dress looks light, I love it!

I’m glad I found this! I went to Vogue’s website and found out that all their vintage patterns are 3.88! Figured I’d share. I have a passion for the retro look. Today’s clothes are not flattering for every body type, in my opinion…

I sew a lot and like vintage fashion. Vintage is my passion. Unfortunately, my wardrobe needs not so much vintage clothing. That is why I enjoy my girl friend. If it so is wearing a dress that feels like a queen.
