Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is the same silk fabric used for my watercolor halter. I didn’t use a pattern and it was pretty simple to make although the bust could have been done better. As with my party skirt, this dress has a three button closure.
Material Notes
Silk, cord, 3 glass buttons
