My journey as a fashion design student ... making my first dress

So after learning all about skirts, I moved on to moulage, which is basically creating a tight fitting top that moulds the top section of your body.

We then created slopers for a bodice up to the waist and a sloper up to the high hip.

After learning dart manipulation techniques, all about princess lines, necklines and facings we need to design 2 dresses, a cocktail and a day dress.

The pictures below is the first one I completed.

I just love what I am doing now and can't believe that I am actually able to design and make my own dress.
