Production of Look 3



Look 3 is a full length gown produced using double sided duchess satin for the main dress, with application of digitally printed organza.

With a fish tail skirt in the train of the main dress which will have digitally printed circles applied to this, because I want the dress train to big quite big and have volume I applied several layers of gathered net on the lining of the train, this then helped to keep the applied circles up and not be dragged.

The main body of the dress has been designed to be very fitted and to sculpt the body, with this I have constructed a boned corset to be fitted into the bodice of the dress.

This dress consists of all four circle sizes used within the digitally print, circles circumferences of 30cm, 48cm, 70cm and 110.5cm.
