#silk georgette

Pattern: Vogue Pattern V9130

Fabric: Silk Georgette by Milly. Lining: Sandwashed silk twill

Notes:

What supposed to be a really easy dress turned into a true test of patience because of the fabric choice. Silk georgette needs to be handled with care and cutting needs to be done one layer at a time. At the end I don’t have too much problem with fabric shifting like my novice days but I really can’t say I am in love with the final product. The dress would have probably work just as well with a less flowy fabric. Lining choice is crucial here. I would not have used sand washed silk if I would redo this again. Georgette and sand washed twill just has too much friction together. Static is a problem here.

Possible improvement: Skip the pockets when using delicate sheer fabric as it affects the drape. Sand washed silk twill as lining is bad idea.
