Hi everyone!
Hope your Thursday has been great. Mine wasn’t fantastic but I shall not harp on it. I am more excited to share with you the design process.
I have been scrolling through pinterest and google search for ideas especially for plus size ladies. Mind you, designing plus size clothes is quite the challenge as you don’t only want to design for her something beautiful but the most important thing here is that, it has got to be flattering!
So after collating your responses on instagram and with much research so here is what it boils down to.
The basic structure of the dress:
1)Maxi dress
2) Empire waistline
3) Wrap dress (THIS! Is probably one of the most popular pattern for plus size dresses) I have seen this a lot apart from an empire waistline. Just look at the screenshot below
So I have sketched the first design to be as such… However I am yet to be satisfied because I want to design something that is not only flattering! Something that is different and unique for semi-formal dress.So yeap! Here’s the first sketch
So yeah do drop me your inputs if you wish, I am all ears đŸ™‚
