Newsflash: June Burda Preview Posted

The early preview of the June Burda has been posted on the Russian website.  After the past two months being awesome, and us heading into the summer season, I wasn't expecting too much.  And, well, most of the preview is pretty meh.  But there are a few pieces that look interesting so I am cautiously optimistic about the issue this month.  Of course, I withhold full judgement until the line drawings show up, but until then I am at least a little excited about June:

Pretty!!!  I really like the design of this dress.
In fact, it might be enough to make the whole issue worth it for me.

Despite the fact that they are super short, I really like these shorts too.
And the top isn't too bad either.

Board shorts and an exercise jacket?  Yes please!

This dress is ok - not terribly exciting, but pretty.

Basic sheath dress.  Cute, but not terribly exciting.

Another basic sheath dress.  Not enough fitting seams for me,
but I could see this being popular because it looks like a quick easy make.

A bit hard to see the knit dress at this angle, but, again,
not too exciting, but might be a popular summer make.

Not sure how I feel about this tunic blouse.
Maybe with different fabric choices I would like it better?

Hmmm... I think this looks interesting.
I don't know if I would wear it, but I can appreciate it.

Not too into that vest.  The blouse and jeans are nice though.

Could those pants be any more unflattering?

Overlong shirt sack dress.   Meh.

Hmmm... Interesting, but maybe a bit too much going on?

Not a fan of those ruffles.  Something about the proportion is off.

This Burda Plus blouse looks pretty cute!
I could see making one for my sister.

Not such a fan of those pants...
And the top might look better in a different fabric.

This beach bag is pretty cute!  And a good way to use scrap fabric.
Actually, I will probably make a British flag version for my sister.
So, what do you all think?  After an awesome April and May, is June looking like a let down?  Or is there enough here to keep everyone interested for the next month?  Feel free to discuss in the comments!

*Side note - the Summer Buttericks have been posted as well.  I will do a separate post for that announcement later tonight when I have time to look through them all.*

  1. It has potential. Some different shorts which may work. The fold over top with the bad pants I actually might want to make for work. So not bad. Besides those pant overals , nothing was super ridiculous. I can't wait for line drawings
