In this session, I provided an overview of the Charlie dress project, which is a cocktail dress made from jersey fabric using creative draping techniques.
I discussed the design variations, fabric options, and the amount of fabric needed for the project.
Lesson Steps:
- Introduced the Charlie dress project, a cocktail dress made from jersey fabric using creative draping techniques
- Explained that the dress will have a halter top with a draped skirt, with variations in the draping placement (around the hips or waist)
- Discussed fabric options: two-way stretch interlock jersey viscose, rayon knit, or silk jersey
- Showed samples of the fabric options, highlighting their drape, stretch, and texture
- Mentioned that approximately 2.5 yards of fabric would be needed for draping and sewing the dress
- Announced the next step would be starting the draping process
