Haute Couture is Not for The Faint of Heart

This fascinating video shows the process of draping fabric to create a pattern. In this case, it is a Christian Dior evening gown from 1939.

Thank you for showing another, beautiful aspect of sewing. It compliments the work of many people in my area . One Quilt Guild here has a generous space at their show each year to show local, handdone fashion. Sewists make life fun.

Fascinating! I've done simple draping before but nothing like this. Thanks for sharing.

That was a pretty cool video. I always wondered how they started a pattern for those fancy dress's. That was fun to watch and for a young viewer it might just start them in a designing field :lol:
