VICTORIA STOCK PATTERN SKIRT

You will learn how to create the minimum of three skirts with the same pattern set. This short course with 3 video tutorials is related to “FABRICSCAPE” project which is explorative in its nature. It combines flat pattern making with draping methods.
The idea comes from exploring the existing shapes of flower’ structures in application to the skirt pattern (of course with some adjustments). 

The particular shape of the pattern in this project comes from Victoria stock flower (Malcolmia marítima, Latin). Three styles were created - the structured pleated-like skirt, the puff skirt with rose-like shapes at the bottom of the skirt and the “pannier-like” skirt with considerable extensions of the hips, reminiscent of the 17-18 centuries’ panniers. 

Some other intriguing shapes were generated during the work process which creates an opportunity for the learner to further explore the use of patterns for his/her own creations.

The pattern construction is provided for full scale skirt, the demonstration is conducted on half-scale mannequin for good observation. See short video
