I feel like sewing.

I had nothing to do today, so I decided to watch four episodes of Project Runway. Although I particularly loved the second season, I haven't really paid that much attention to the show. And usually when I do, I start to feel inspired. So I have for you, ladies and gentleman, some sketches.


The first, which is a basic sweetheart A-line dress.


The second.... which is practically the same. I think I wanted to put more structure in the top (kind of like a corset, but not too provocative).


The third, which basically gets rid of the midsection by having a smaller band across the waist. I wanted the band to have pattern, and the rest to be a solid. The only problem is this dress is probably short. But again, sweetheart A-line.


The fourth, which has sort of a different neckline, and wide-to-narrow straps that lend more support. I wanted to design these dresses with curves in mind, since a lot of dresses I try on with a separate boob and waist section forget that some women have larger boobs. And they need to be supported.


The fifth is just playing around with a straight neckline and a v-type thingy leading to an A-line instead of a band. I still like the straps though.


In the last one, I wanted to incorporate sleeves. The triangle straps are still there, but this time they lead to sheer sleeves that end in a ruffle type hem. The bust is composed of a sweetheart neckline, which some sort of subtle texture, in a solid color. There is a band/belt with something in the middle. The bottom is a sheer ruffle thing, with layers.




In conclusion, I love sweetheart necklines with an A-line dress. I think curves are wonderful. The End.
