TR Method Dress

Hi Everybody,

This is my latest design, a Transformational Reconstruction (TR) method dress. In this technique we eliminate traditional seams in garments by using stylized lines and curves in basic muslin blocks. I also added volume to the skirt, to make it more girly.


A simple experiment, but definitely exciting!
