This simple elastic waisted dress is clearly from one of Burda’s favorite films, Pretty Woman, as they’ve borrowed inspiration from the fashions in that film multiple times.

In contrast to the lack of jackets, Burda has gone to town giving us new dresses:ġ01 – One of the spreads in this issue seems to have the theme “Movie Magic” wherein Burda tries to re-create simpler versions of some iconic movie dresses. I’d be curious to see if anyone else sews it up, but it’s maybe not the most exciting vintage re-release Burda’s given us in recent memory. The pleats on the back of the shoulders are an interesting design feature, but overall this isn’t a style I can see myself wearing. Overall I really like this jacket – it’s just not something I need to sew right now.ġ20 – Vintage Burda. The belt looks great on the garment photo – not sure how much I love it on the model. I love the placement of the 4 buttons – it’s an interesting nod to menswear while emphasizing the use is more for fashion and a bit less for function.

At this point I think it would be a bit stiff/formal for my daily life and my current job, but I’d consider it if I needed to create a more formal professional wardrobe. There aren’t many jackets in this issue as we head towards spring/summer sewing, but we do have a few interesting designs:ġ07 – Ok, this is a blazer I would have been obsessed with a few years ago (before doing the Sew Your Kibbe blog series). As always I’ll voice my opinions, but I’m very curious to hear what everyone else thinks down in the comments. I can’t say I’m as in love with the April issue as I have been with March or February, but I can’t really tell if I’m just distracted or if the designs just aren’t as interesting. I’m exhausted, and I haven’t even done anything! I’m sure that I’ll write more about this as we all progress through it, but, in the meantime, let’s distract ourselves with some new sewing patterns! I’m sure it’s too early to tell what this means for the long term – this week has been weird and I feel like everyone in the US has been living on minute-to-minute news. Some of this (most of this?) probably stems from my job, but the feeling has sort of filtered into the other aspects of life now that the separation isn’t there as much. Right now everything feels very reactive, and like it’s all a mad scramble to get things in place before the next issue pops up. It’s funny that I thought cutting 2 hours of commute time out of my day would give me more hours to do things like sewing… Of course, once we settle into the “new normal” maybe I’ll be able to get some sort of a routine happening. The April Burda preview has been posted on both the German and Russian sites for a while now, but I’ve been so busy dealing with all of the adjustments that needed to happen as life moves towards the new reality of having an entire household work from home that I haven’t had much time to get this post together.
