When I first saw it, I admired it and kept on paging through the magazine.  That was a month ago.  Then I looked again and decided I might like to have a go at  making it.
I like the shape and the contrast of the print center panel against the solid sides.  I also like that the center is a knit and the rest of the dress is a stretch woven.  The asymmetrical neckline is rather interesting, too.
I decided to take Burda's lead in choosing fabrics and these lovelies are on their way to me right now:
Vivid Stretch Jersey Stripe
Bermuda Stretch Pique
Bright, saturated summer colors- I hope they are as exciting in person as they are on the screen.  Let the muslin begin!

That is going to be a stunning combination! Where did you buy the fabric from?
I bought the May issue because of that dress! I can't wait to see your version of it.
DiD I see that pattern?
Yes of course I did and I want to make it too!
I just have to wait for summer to come round to Australia.
I love your fabric choices.
