Every girl wants to be beautiful and provocativeadmiration from the opposite sex. To comply with this, you need to take care of your appearance and dress beautifully. You can buy things in a store, but only something created by your own hands can add uniqueness to your image. Now let’s take a closer look at how to sew a skirt – bell. Getting started Before you start doing anything, you need to once again make sure that this thing is needed. It is necessary to understand that this skirt is not suitable for every woman, since for women with a slender figure it will emphasize their beauty, and for ladies with curvaceous figures this style of skirt will only add even more volume and will look completely ugly.
Pattern creation and cutting
When making a skirt of this style, you need to measurea couple of measurements for the girl who will wear the skirt. To cut a bell skirt, you need to measure the waist circumference and the desired length of the product, which varies from 60 cm (medium) to 100 cm (long) skirt. Based on these parameters, the required volume of fabric is selected. Our bell skirt is sewn using a grain thread and this is the main point, since otherwise the product may stretch, so you need to buy the right amount of fabric, taking into account the allowances for hemming the skirt at the bottom and making a belt at the top. When choosing fabric for a skirt, you need to take into account that thick and coarse material will not organize a beautiful fit; you need to take light fabric. To make this skirt, an inexperienced seamstress will need a pattern. To create a pattern, cut out 2 squares of 150*150 cm, then you need to transfer it to your fabric and cut it out. Then we fold the resulting squares in half diagonally. To make a fluffy skirt, you need to make its bottom rounded, taking into account the length of the product, then mark the waist, taking into account allowances when sewing the skirt parts. To make a belt, you need to cut the fabric with a width of approximately 1:2 to the required one so that the belt is tight enough, and a length equal to the waist circumference with an allowance of about four centimeters for the fastener.
Sew We need to sew our skirt with only one ofsides, while not reaching the edge of the fabric by approximately 15 cm; the edges also need to be overlaid on a machine. Then you need to sew in a zipper; a hidden one will look better. Next, the matter of folding or gathering depends on desire. The folds can be sequential or counterfold. You can create a gather using the widest stitch available on your sewing machine, skipping and gathering the skirt. Our skirt needs to be assembled until the top of the skirt fits around the waist. Everything is secured with pins, then we sew a line and remove the pins.
Belt Now you need to sew the belt.On the side of the lock you need to sew a fastener – button Next, we fold the skirt and belt “facewise” and you need to sew it on a typewriter. It is important to finish the seam. Then we process the fastener in an inverted position. We bend the belt and sew it carefully with a stitch 1 mm wide. The button is sewn directly opposite the eyelet. It remains to process the bottom of the skirt. You can carefully hem it on a machine or use a special tape.
Ironing and decoration The main point after sewingskirts – This is ironing. You need to carefully smooth out the seams and iron the skirt. You can also steam it, but not every fabric can handle it. Now, at your discretion and taste, you can add accessories for decoration or embroider a design. But you will still look unique in such a skirt!
The bell skirt is perfect for those who haveproblems with hip size. For those with a pear shape and "triangle" A bell skirt that is knee-length or even a little higher looks good. This style of skirt visually adds volume where it is lacking. Despite such excellent properties of a bell skirt, with its help you still cannot present the entire figure in the best light. It is better to use it for women who have beautiful, slender legs, otherwise a skirt can only add volume and heaviness to the entire look. Moreover, the longer your legs, the shorter you can wear a skirt. Due to the fact that the skirt itself is quite voluminous and fluffy, you should choose a simple top for it and without wide sleeves. A turtleneck with a high neck, a white blouse, a tank top or a thin jumper will look great. For everyday wear, a sports-style T-shirt or a short-sleeved T-shirt will suit the skirt. To complement the look, you can use a light blouse and shoes without platforms. In winter, you can wear high-heeled boots or any other classic-style shoes with a skirt.
