Ooh. The Colette patterns blog is doing a Rooibos sewalong. Very tempted, but I’m not sure that style would look good on me. What do you guys think? Suitable for tall and curvy, or not so good?

Probably OK if you could lower the neckline a bit. I think tall and curvy looks better with a v or scoop neck.
I think it’s a great dress. I just ordered Violet and Ginger today from CanDoBooks. I think Rooibos would be lovely on anyone. I think it will compliment curves really well and should be easy to add any length to need to body or skirt. I love the fold down on the neck line and the piping. Cant wait to see it! I’m signed up for the Burdastyle retro dress…Now all I need is a childfree weekend to make it…
