Quite often, in Burda models, the most common rep ribbon bow is used as decor. For example, on blouses to emphasize a deep neckline or on dresses, on a contrast belt.
And also on products from plain fabrics. To make such a bow from a rep ribbon with your own hands is very simple.

Form a bow (Figure 2), sweep in the middle.
Round a piece of rep ribbon for a bow knot around the middle of the bow, sew the ends of the ribbon from the back - see Figure 3.
Pin the rep ribbon with the bow to the set-in belt so that the bow lies along the line of the middle of the front.
Stitch rep ribbon on the set-in belt as long as possible.
At the rear ends of the set-in belt, cut off the protruding ends of the rep ribbon.
