Some recommendations

Of course, it is difficult for beginners to cope independently with work. Sewing without a dress pattern is not an easy task. To do this, you need to correctly calculate the amount of matter. If you do not plan to make a mini and strictly close-fitting, then for a regular dress of medium length you need from 2.5 to 3 meters of matter. Plus, from one and a half to 2 meters of fittings for decoration, if any, it is planned (referring to different braid, color lacing, lace, etc.). It is easy to sew without dress patterns, if they are of direct silhouettes, one-piece or in a “hoodie” style, tunics. Armed with only a shallow and a centimeter, directly on the material it is much more convenient to carve skirts, four-blades, “sun-flared”, “pencil” than other styles. In general, the simpler the cut, the more confident that the result will be of high quality. And another choice of material - it also plays an important role in tailoring.

Craftswomen who only master the basics of art should start learning to sew without patterns of silk dresses, knitwear and other fabrics that fit well in shape. And in the first place is the stretch. Last recommendation: before you fill your hand and jokingly deal with the most sophisticated fashion trends, use those outfits that “sit” perfectly on you as a model. Putting them on the fabric and outlining the silhouette, cut out the blanks from which you will sew without dress patterns or tops, skirts.

Little black dress

First, try to build a classic little black dress. It’s best to buy squeezed knitwear or stretch fabric. Meter 2 is probably enough. Fold the material in half on a cutting table, attach a thing that is tight to you, circle the silhouette. Extend the bottom line, figuring out how long the outfit you want. We will make a reservation: the proposed version of the dress is the neckline, without shoulders and strapless. It is easiest to sew without a pattern and without experience. Next, measure, with a small or piece of candle, mark a centimeter on the seam. Naturally, make all the marks from the wrong side. You will have only one seam on your back. When measurements are taken, cut the fabric, sweep - and try on.

Is everything okay? Then go to the typewriter and sew the dress without a pattern on it. Or sew with your hands, with a needle. If the fabric is plain, decorate the dress with a bright applique. Or put on a string of beads, a necklace, a decorative chain or other decoration. An outfit bra is needed on the bones, with transparent straps or on the straps with rhinestones. Then you don’t have to worry about the rest of the jewelry.

Dress with a full skirt

Another interesting option for a home-made outfit is a dress with a full skirt. We sew a dress without a pattern as well as the first, only it consists of a bodice and a skirt. The bodice is also without shoulders. Take 3 meters of silk. Cut 1 meter, fold in half and sew the bodice from top to bottom. Do the same with the second cut, laid back on the skirt. Now measure one and a half centimeters at the top of the bodice, lay the material and hem (there you put in an elastic band so that it does not slip from the chest), and at the top of the skirt - also for elastic. Combine both fragments of the dress, retract the elastic bands and put on. Happened? Then iron well and enjoy your new outfit.

Good luck in tailoring!
