An original dress that does not require a pattern,which we offer you to sew, will become an excellent element of your wardrobe. It will not take much effort and time to create. The work process is so easy that any needlewoman, even a beginner, can handle it. And the classic style of the product will be relevant under any circumstances. Every girl has at least several dresses in her wardrobe, made in different styles. But this is never enough. After all, you always want something new and exclusive. Something that you will not find on other representatives of the beautiful half of humanity. Considering the fact that it is extremely difficult to achieve this result when buying a product in stores, and for an ordinary buyer it is generally almost impossible, there is only one way out - to sew a new item with your own hands. To sew a beautiful elegant dress that will favorably emphasize your style, image and fit your figure, you do not have to be a professional seamstress and use complex patterns and patterns. We offer you exactly this quick option, which is ideal for all occasions. Today we will sew a simple original dress that does not require a pattern. You must admit, this is an extremely tempting offer. First we need to make a choicefabrics. elastic knitwear is ideal for this model. It is important that it contains both cotton, which will allow air to pass through to the body, so you will not feel discomfort while wearing it, and synthetic fibers. It is the addition of synthetics that will prevent the dress from wrinkling while wearing.If you decide to sew a product for the summer,buy knitwear that is not too dense, thinner. For a cooler season, naturally, choose a dense fabric. Having decided on the composition and texture of the material, we move on to its color. There are absolutely no restrictions in the choice. You can use both plain fabric and fabric with a print on it. It all depends on your personal preferences and the occasion for which, in fact, we are sewing this outfit. Only if you are not an experienced seamstress, it is better to choose a more abstract pattern that does not need to be matched. This will make it easier to work. We chose fabric with a print. An important advantage of the material we prefer (elastic knitwear) is that darts are not needed when sewing it. It is convenient when putting on and taking off and does not cause difficulties when sewing. How much fabric is needed to sew a product For example, let's take standard sizes. The model's height is no more than 175 centimeters, the size is no more than 50th. The standard width of the fabric is 1.3 - 1.5 meters.

Long dress - 1.8 meters of fabric.
Mid-length dress (knee-length) – 1.3 meters.
Short dress model - 1.1 meters.

We will also need fabric for the sleeves, so this should also be taken into account when purchasing.

Short sleeve – 0.2 meters.
A sleeve that reaches the elbow – 0.4 meters.
Long sleeve – 0.7 meters.

If you need to sew a dress for a larger height orsize, it is better to consult with the sellers in the fabric store, who will certainly be able to help you decide on the calculations. If you have bought everything and are ready to create, then let's proceed to the most creative process of creating this wonderful outfit. As a preparatory stage, we need to iron the fabric well (with steam) and choose a T-shirt in your wardrobe that fits you perfectly. It will become the pattern according to which we will cut our dress. The fabric must be laid out on a flat surface and folded in half (along the grain line). We apply the selected T-shirt to the fabric and outline its contours with chalk or a piece of soap. You can see how to do this correctly in the photo below.You have to choose the length yourself, soeverything is in your hands. If you have wide hips, you will need to make a small allowance in this part. Now cut out the details with sharp scissors, taking into account the allowance for seams (add one on each side - one and a half centimeters). On the front details of the future dress, you need to make cutouts, the shape and depth of which you can make whatever you like.Again, we take the same thing as a templateT-shirt and cut out the sleeves. According to the neckline of the front and back parts of the product, cut out the facing from the same material, the width of which should be five centimeters.The facing cut for the front of the dress needs to bebend together with the neck and secure with sewing pins as we see in the photo. During the attachment, the facing should be slightly stretched, then the neck will look very neat. Now we stitch. This should be done, stepping back from the edge, approximately one centimeter.We carry out similar actions with the facing of the back of the product.Now we sew the shoulder seams. To make the edges look nice, you can use a machine stitch "zigzag".Let's move on to sewing on the sleeve.To do this, we need to match the middle of the sleeve with the shoulder line of the garment. We pin it and stitch it. We do the same with the second sleeve. If the allowances are in the way, they can be cut off a little.Now we need to work on the side seams.First we need to baste them or pin them together. The main thing is not to stretch the fabric. The hem of the garment and the seams of the sleeve must match. Stitch.Almost everything is ready.All that's left is to try on the dress and decide what length of the sleeves and the garment itself to leave. We hem the sleeves, as well as the hem and that's it. You can go conquer the world in an outfit of your own making.
