Letting the Fabric Define the Design

Sunday, March 5, 2006

Sometimes the print of the fabric will dictate the design of the garment. Such is the case with this simple sheath dress by Krizia. This dress was designed in the 1980's and the straight silhouette with the boat neckline and kimono sleeves serves to set off the splashy print of the cotton fabric.


The clean straight lines of the dress with minimal seaming allows the textile to become the main focus here.
