Since my last post, I have been busy constructing the three very different wedding-dresses on request.
All three customers have had their measures taken and these measures are the basis for their very personal patterns, that these dresses are based on.
The next step is to copy them in silk-paper and make a muslin/calico. The muslin/calico is a basic model made up in a cheap cotton, that is used for the first fitting.

After these steps, every single customer are appointed for a fitting, where the dress is adjusted. Depending on the cut and figure, more fittings can be necessary. But usually 1-2 fittings are enough.
The final design and details are decided, the fabric chosen and a deposit payed.

The last fitting for fine-tuning adjustments is agreed upon and the dress is being finished.
The result is a very special One-of-a-kind dress. If the customers don´t mind, I will show the results later on.
