The funny thing is that I didn’t know I desperately needed this pattern (McCall’s 5433, for those of you playing at home) until I saw it. and then I was all “you must — must, I say! — be mine.” (Luckily, when I saw the pattern it was on eBay, so that was easy.)
The only dark spot in my otherwise unmarred expanse of joy is that the cummerbund is a cummerbund, and not an actual midriff band. but that can be … dealt with. Also: the gored skirt is going to be pocketized. (That’s a given.)
Anyway: I cannot wait to make this, let alone wear it. Question: in what fabric should this humdinger first take flight? No brocade, I want to wear this every day.
(I’m also thinking of using this skirt with the bodice of the BurdaStyle Heidi. Thoughts?)
