Hello my dear friends from Hive and from this community that I have found and I have loved it, this is my first post in this community and for this reason I want to write about the first step that we must take before carrying out a clothing project
I grew up between machines and fabrics, my grandmother was one of the best dressmaker i have known, her ingenuity when it came to sewing and creating was one of those that spread and make you also passionate about the art of tailoring and design
This led me to become interested as well and to learn cutting, sewing and dressmaking, I learned to embroider with her and thus developed a taste for everything related to the world of dressmaking.
One of the most common weak points that I can look at when starting a sewing project, although it may seem very simple, is in the choice of the fabric that should be used, the majority make mistakes at this point and although their level of sewing be good, the garment does not allow them to stand out at all
First we must identify which model we would like to make, and if it is in our mind, make a sketch, study the design very well, we can take into account what type of body we want to make the design for, what you want to highlight or what to hide. , for what type of event will you use it, the type of weather, are some of the aspects that you can take into account when making the decision
When I go to the looms to do my shopping, it draws my attention to see people who wear clothes with the wrong fabrics and they don't look pretty at all, however I have used those same fabrics in other clothes and they look very pretty
p>
And you may think that because the fabric is cheaper it cannot look good and it is not like that, the high costs have nothing to do with choosing the wrong fabric, you can choose an economical fabric and even your garment will be very pretty if it is the right one
For example, if you want to make a dress for a wedding, you should know that a dress for a wedding on the beach, during the day, cannot be the same as for a wedding in a salon and at night.
I am going to show you a dress that I have made with a very nice jersey fabric, the idea of this dress is that it has a slight fall where in turn the figure can be appreciated and it can be worn with heels or tennis
Now I show you the two styles that I idealized for this dress
They are models, collaborating friends, it is the same dress, only that photo number 1 is edited and distorts the color, in the first photo it was worn with tennis and in the second with heels
Now, if instead of choosing this type of fabric with a very good drape, I had chosen a rigid fabric like this
then the neck had lost its elasticity and comfort
I hope that from now on you take these tips into account before selecting what type of reinforced fabric, thank you for reading me, in my next blogs I will show you the step by step of some of my clothing so that you can also do it if you are from those who love this beautiful world of making
