This is really impressive! I'm currently finding it all the more so since I'm at the point of wanting to transition my own style from the girlish fluffiness of 50s inspired to something a little more, dare I say it - mature - and ideally sophisticated. I'm thinking of moving into the early-mid 60s with narrower skirts and that more "grown-up" look. I think I need to revisit pencil skirts. Thanks so much for the inspiration, you look gorgeous!Carolynhttp://www.themodernmantuamaker.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252155843239152686.post-38565615460146358162018-09-11T19:40:40.723+10:002018-09-11T19:40:40.723+10:00YASSS!

I'm not actually convinced that the burdastyle image is actually the same as the pattern. Because my fabric had a lot of stretch in it and I made the bodice extra loose and it still didn't drape anywhere near as low at the image on Burda!<br />Thanks for your lovely comment :)Julia Bobbinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06259552696779501230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252155843239152686.post-24245889252482329552018-09-01T14:02:04.003+10:002018-09-01T14:02:04.003+10:00The color of that velvet is so luxe!

I like yours much better because you can wear a bra and it won't show. But I think it's a more beautiful drape.Vancouver Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11003537173366037602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252155843239152686.post-83905140020505334232018-09-01T03:17:56.207+10:002018-09-01T03:17:56.207+10:00Beautiful.
