Until then, I caught the Dirndl-fever, too. So I´m making a fancy one for me.
I made the pattern myself yesterday. I wanted to have many seams in the back, so I split it in 4 pieces. The front a seam, where the hooks will be attatched. The bodice has a very low neckline, but it will be worn with a blouse underneath.
I bought the fabrics also. I got a beautiful dark green jaquard silk with deers for the skirt, a dark brown linen for the bodice and a bright green taffeta for the apron.
I want to use the apron fabric to do decoration ("Froschgoscherl" more on that later) on the bodice if I have enough fabric.
I´m not making a traditional Dirndl, as I´m not gathering the skirt, I will make pleats. And the skirt will be shorter than usual.
So, to the sewing maschine!
