For a danceshow in June, I have an assignment to make a seer and costumes. But tomorrow is World Dance Day, and one of the costumes need to be ready by tomorrow\u00b4s preview.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_5694\"<\/p>\n

So I found my powder pink silk chiffon and rayon, and got started.<\/p>\n

The underdress is here almost finished. My bust has different measurements than my dancer. So the whole thing seems all twisted here, hopefully it\u00b4s not in real life.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_5699\"<\/p>\n

I wanted the dress to be inspired by deconstuction, so I\u00b4ve made all the seams on the outside. The length I\u00b4ll cut when she tries it on tomorrow.<\/p>\n

There will come another dress made in the silk chiffon on top, in a different pattern. I wanted to make this an improvised draped thing\u2026<\/p>\n

\"_MG_5701\"<\/p>\n

Now of course, anyone remotely sensible, would make a draped pattern in say cheap cotton fabric. Especially if you\u00b4re working with crinkled silk chiffon. It\u00b4s more alive than a happy puppy! But not me.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_5703\"<\/p>\n

The result is putting it up on the stand\/bust, pinning one part, taking it down, sewing it, putting it back up, doing the next part. It is truly a textile improvisation. I changes many times during the process.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_5707\"<\/p>\n

Of course I COULD plan it all, but part of the fun, is seeing how it evolves.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_5709\"<\/p>\n

The last seam makes it to small to put back on the bust, so now I can only see it on a hanger. It looks a bit funny, asymmetrical as it is. Hopefully it will look absolutely smashing on my dancer.<\/p>\n
