This outfit is perfect for any costume party, including a concert performance.The classic suit consists of a long and wideskirts, blouses in bright colors, rich shawls, heavy beads. Necessary materials: • Canvas in rich colors; • Black chiffon material; • Black and colored bias tape; • Elastic to make a belt approximately 6 cm wide; • Elastic to make a frill on the bodice, the width of which is 2 cm; • Sewing accessories.
Gypsy costume skirt: 1.To sew a gypsy skirt, you need to create two patterns of the sun - flared, measuring the waist circumference and the desired length, taking into account that there will be a frill along the hem. We calculate the radius of the waist circumference: R = OT / 2P, where OT is the waist circumference, and P is an unchangeable value, equal to 3.14. For example: 540 mm / (2 * 3.14) = 86 mm. Since we need two patterns, we divide the finished result in two, that is 86 mm / 2 = 43 mm. Then we add the length of the skirt to the calculated radius, not taking into account the frill. For example, 43 mm + 750 mm = 793 mm.
2.We make a pattern of a skirt and transfer it onto the material. 3. Then, carefully, without shifting the material, we cut out the pattern. As a result, we get two blanks of material 150 cm long. Then we stitch all the elements of the skirt. Ruffles: 1. First, we calculate the perimeter of 2 skirt circles using the formula P = 2Пr, where r is the length of the skirt. 2. For example, 2 * 3.1470 cm = 440 cm. Not forgetting that we have two blanks, as a result we get 440 cm * 2 = 880 cm. 3. As a result, it turns out that the frills will be 880 cm * 2 = 1760 cm, which is approximately 18 m. We get six strips 3 m long and 220 cm wide made of black chiffon fabric and six strips 3 m long, only 170 mm wide made of brightly colored material. 4. Stitch the strip with a lap stitch in 2 rings of 18 m, and then decorate with bias tape. 5. Now assemble the frill. Lay the strips (black down, bright on top) and stitch along the outside, making an indent of about 2 cm. 6. Then evenly distribute along the entire length of the frill and stitch.
Belt:1.we cut out a piece of fabric slightly longer than the waist circumference and select the width to match the required elastic band for the belt. We stitch the belt to the skirt, while leaving an opening to install the elastic band later.
Top:1.from bright fabric we cut out a rectangular figure, the width of which is equal to two waist circumferences, and then sew the whole thing with a bobbin elastic. 2. from black and bright material we cut out strips for frills about 1.5 m long and decorate with bias tape. We stitch them so that later we can install the elastic. 3. then we stitch the frills to the top and the costume is ready! There are several types of similar costumes. All of them are unique and similar to each other at the same time. The gypsy costume is bright, lush and memorable will not leave anyone indifferent!
