The Maxi Skirt is Back!

In a world where fashion trends come and go, there's one timeless piece making a triumphant return: The Maxi Skirt! Embraced by style icons past and present, this ankle-length wonder is reclaiming its place in the spotlight.

But before we dive deep into the beauty of the maxi skirt, let's address a common misconception: the notion that "one size fits all." In reality, nothing could be further from the truth. Achieving the perfect fit requires a personalized approach, tailoring garments to your unique measurements and comfort.

Let’s embark on this journey together, starting from the very basic!

Designing

We begin by drawing inspiration from our ✨MUSES✨

Let’s embark on an exciting journey of sketching and drafting the master block for our maxi skirt.

Part 2: Let's Make an Inspired Ganni Top!

After finishing our maxi skirt, let's craft an inspired Ganni top to complement it, especially since it's been making waves on the fashion runways lately. 👀

PS: We're going to transform an oversized shirt into a Ganni top because we're passionate about upcycling and committed to environmental sustainability!

To begin, let's gather our materials and prepare the master block.

   

Now, let's delve into the sewing process required to ensure our Ganni top turns out fabulous! We'll start by cutting the fabric, sewing the straps, inverting them inside out, attaching a bind to the edge of the bodice and neckline, adding ruffles to the bottom part of the top, and finally stitching everything together.

And there you have it! A brand new top created through the art of upcycling at its finest.

We'll be diving into our Upcycling adventure in our next post, look out!! 👀 In the meantime, let's get going with these classes...
