Production of Look 2


Look 2 features a simple fitted bodice and skirt with full length sleeves, layers of black net joined in at the waist seam with circles of digitally printed organza applied onto the skirt of the dress.

This look has been designed to a short dress with layers and layer of printed organza covering the entire skirt to create volume and drama.

The layers of organza feature print which has been hand painted, placed onto photoshop and printed onto satin organza. There is only one print on the dress however the print has been blown up to 2 metres long and 135cm in width, having this repeated three times equalling to 6 metres of the same print repeated. From this print the circles were cut out from my own circle blocks of certain circumferences of 30cm, 48cm, and 70cm.
