Hello Hiveians
Today am showing us a simple design for this A line I made for a client yesterday.
She brought a 5yards of the net lace material and wasn't sure of what to make with it.
I suggested designing the dress into this A shape which she will be putting in a camisole as an undergarments.
She is really chubby and trying to draft pattern for a more complex style will take much of a time and in the mean time she needs it urgently to wear to a function.
A line dress are simple to construct and can be cut in 3differnt ways that I know.
- A bias fold method for more fullness.
- The dart method
- The free hand method
I used the free hand method, drafted a basic bodice to the hip and made the added fullness to the base.
Next I stitched the front and back together
I used the fabric to cut a straight strip bias fold which I then ironed and used to turn the neckline.
The final step was ironing and weaving of the seams.
With that my clients dress is completed. Am going to get a very comfortable material to make a simple camisole for this.
