This dress is a school project, I’m studying to be an arts teacher (among other subjects). Our teacher told us we had to use a pattern, and since I have never used a readymade pattern and didn’t really want to, I decided to draft my pattern myself. I based te top of my pattern on the “princess armhole styleline” from “patternmaking for fashion design”, a book by Helen Joseph-Armstrong. Then I just improvised the rest on my own, at it worked great!
Slike look satin ands tulle!
