The first 1000 people to use the link will get a free trial of Skillshare Premium Membership: https://skl.sh/sewstine03211 I drafted and sewed together the classic Little Black Dress as worn by Audrey Hepburn (and designed by Givenchy and Edith Head) from the 1961 movie Breakfast at Tiffany's. First, I talk about the history of this particular movie costume, and all the different people who worked on it, and why the skirt looks the way it does. I also talk about where the three different versions of this dress exist today. I then make the dress. To do this, I used the draping method to make the pattern, use black silk satin to sew it up, and then use 1960s zipper techniques to put in a couture zipper. Then I discuss 1950s/1960s underwear, and there is a get ready with me (GRWM) for this gown.
