The design process of my A line dress

avatar

Hello Hiveians

About two weeks from now I have been about making different designs from our common cloth for my sisters marriage ceremony that took place during the past weekend.

Well well
To make my own I was totally short of inspiration on what to do, but decided to follow whatever comes to my mind.

Little by little I thought of an off shoulder A line dress with a full tail behind what was I going to make of the sleeve.
No idea came still I went about it and that was what I made in the end.
Am sure you can understand the kind of tension I felt trying to make my dress just a day to the wedding.
I was full of so much activities from shopping cooking and supervision other stuff.

The making process

The making process of this dress started with pattern drafting and cutting of the fabric.

Next was padding of the underlining and gumming of the lace fabric to lining of the satin fabrics.

I really didn't get to do a fine job and get the dress shaped to my measurements, it was all fitted as I did the rush work and at a late hour.

Funny enough I had let down my hair for a cover of some imperfect parts 😂😂😂, that's coding.

Nevertheless it served its intended purpose, I cant imagine dressing on on that day.

In the mean time I had a make designer make something of similar color for my male siblings and I will like you to enjoy viewing our photos.

THe photos look as if you all had a wonderful day. And the matching clothes are amazing. My own wedding was in the middle of winter and we all had to wear a lot of clothes to not freeze on the spot :-DDDD I think your sisters wedding had much more fortunate weather.
But to be honest, finishing my dress only a day before would have killed be because of stress :-D Cudos to your strong nerves. The dress you made turned out wonderful and I cannot see any flaws. I love how it hug your beautiful figure and the design is really special <3
