Burda Style For people who sew
Description
One of the first dresses I ever made. First I draped and hand sewed vintage fabric around a bra I didn’t really wear anymore and then made a simple dress part with a drooping back (because I didn’t know how to sew zippers yet). So simple and yet its one of my favourite dresses.

I like the idea of sewing an old bra into the dress to get the right shape of the bust. Great idea. It looks good on you too.
