I have finished making the cream dress and have put a belt on it to pull it in at the waist. Here it looks slightly feminine, but I am convinced that in the photoshoot, when modelled on a man that it will fit with my androgynous theme.
The hardest part of the construction was placing the zip in the back. It runs a long way down and is designed to be hidden. Lining up all the seams was a challenge, taking time and patience to ensure the final look was to a high standard. I am going to move straight onto constructing the black dress, with more experience of how the pattern works, it should be easier to figure out. I have decided to leave the bottom un-hemmed to let the threads dangle down, giving a distressed feel like that of the building.
