And Sew On:(41:09)

Gigi is working on a size 10 Bias slip dress. It is draped, and the paper pattern is ready. Need to sew it

for a grade. I now refer to my dress form, that was made from my body, as "The “client “

Watching old Project Runway episodes for inspiration.  Michael Costello has designed a bias dress,

but i cannot use it for inspiration. It is cut so low in the back that there is no room for any foundation garment.  

 

Also, judges bash garments as “matronly “.
