This balanced and radiant look is perfect for those sunny summer days, combining comfort and style with an effortless allure.
The star of the season, the wrap skirt tied at the waist, stands out for its vibrant print and natural elegance. It's paired with a clean, easy-to-sew white top and a textured garnet red vest that's versatile yet refined.
For the finishing touch, choose a denim tote bag embellished with a DIY sashiko pattern, a stylish nod to the art of handmade fashion.
The Wrap Skirt
Cotton Skirt 106 | Burda Style 05/25
The wrap skirt is the undisputed fashion star of summer!
A key piece of the look, it instantly charms with its striking print, reminiscent of shimmering mosaics and the vibrant colors of the Orient. Its fluid cut features an elasticated waistband at the back and a side box pleat for ease of movement and subtle elegance. The sash helps define the waist and adds a stylish accent.
Depending on your style, you can make it in a soft, breathable cotton, a suede or velvety fabric for a bold fashion statement, or even denim for a retro-chic vibe. The possibilities are endless!
Its true strength? It flatters all body shapes. Pair it with the right accessories—as shown here—for a look that’s both comfortable and effortlessly stylish.
The Top
Jersey Top 101 | Burda Style 04/24
A timeless essential!
A must-have in any wardrobe, this top suits all styles and seasons. Its clean-cut design in white jersey makes it an easy piece to mix and match. This model is ideal to sew with an overlocker for a neat finish, or with a stretch stitch (like zigzag) to adapt perfectly to the fabric.
Customize it to your liking, and opt for a natural, organic fabric for a version that’s both ethical and long-lasting—far more responsible than store-bought basics.
Style tip: If you love crop tops, simply shorten the length...the look will be even more on-trend!
The Sweater
Polyester Jacket 119 | Burda Style 05/25
A jacket that doesn't compromise on style!
Always practical for covering your shoulders without sacrificing elegance, this sweater is the perfect piece to sew and throw over your summer outfits. Its feminine cut flatters the figure, with a gracefully rounded neckline and delicate bust darts for a flawless fit.
Its charming detail? A textured fabric in garnet red that subtly echoes the tones of the wrap skirt without overdoing it.
Perfect for protecting yourself against a light breeze, it’s easy to slip on and just as easy to take off when the sun turns up the heat. Lightweight, stylish, and practical, this is an essential for your busy summer days.
The Bag
Shopping Bag 130 | Burda Style 03/24
An accessory as useful as it is delightful. A must sew!
Once you’ve made it, you won’t want to go without! Crafted here from denim canvas and adorned with sashiko embroidery (a Japanese technique that’s both graphic and trendy) this tote brilliantly combines function and style.
Whether you’re browsing the market, heading to work, or meeting friends on a sunny terrace, it goes everywhere with you while adding a unique, eye-catching touch to your outfit. Toss in whatever you like!
