Here is the top I showed you a preview of in my last post after I took it in in the lower band. This pattern has more ease than I'm used to in Burda patterns; of course better to have too much than the opposite =O . I like how it looks with the lower bodice piece hugging the body. In the pictures below I don't know if you can see the looser initial fit, but I can feel a difference when I wear it.
In this last picture I wanted to show you the pretty bell sleeves.
This pattern was a gift from
Andrea two years ago, I finally made it Andrea! I love the boat neck because it does not show underwear straps. I will not be able to wear it in the hot summer, the knit I used is a poly. I can only wear sleeveless garments made out of polyester in the summer. I do love this print which I purchased at Kashi's during PR weekend in NYC. I have enough left to make a simple summer dress.
Super cute top!

ReplyDeleteTwo years isn't bad between receiving and making up a pattern - I have some way older than that still in their envelopes. LOVE the top, both the look of it on you and the fabric.
ReplyDeleteYep I can see the difference- you now have a waist yay!!! Looks like this will be a good summer wardrobe staple.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, that is great on you esp with the white pants. Looking good!
ReplyDeleteLove this top!The print is beautiful, it goes great with the white pants.

ReplyDeleteVery pretty - the fabric looks like a nice match for the design, and so comfortable for summer!
ReplyDeleteI've made two of this top and it is perfect to throw on with jeans in the Fall. This looks great on you!
