A Vintage Inspired Dress
My first garment completed in AND 273 : Sewing and Construction
I was inspired by late 1960's early 1970 color and scandinavian print design.
We were encouraged to experiment with a specialty technique of our choice. I chose to embroider parts of the patterns. I wanted juxtapose the subtle with the eccentric.
We first constructed a mock up which would allow us to work out any confusion in reading a commercial pattern. After the mock up was complete, we tailored the dress by drafting new a new fitted pattern for the final construction.
