Not unintentional.


While making a closer observation of the Vivienne Westwood dress I chose earlier, I was paying more attention to the structure of the dress and how the qualities of the printed silk.

As you can see, this dress has a rather traditional shape.

With a few exceptions of course.

Watch elevates this dress's silhouette are:
The strategically placed swag of fabric on the neckline that continues onto the back of the dress.

The small gathering close to the hip-line.

Because of these two little changes this otherwise conventional silhouette becomes dramatically elevated.

The original dress designs were scrapped and I started work on another dress design that would incorporate the strategic draping found in all of Westwood's designs.


The final dress design.
