Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Decided it would be easier to design and create my own prom dress instead of looking for one that I liked and fitted.
Material Notes
I actually used home decorating fabric for the bodice, but I used a lightweight satin with a light overlay for the skirt. Also used trumpet beads for the beading on the waist.
