You’ll see my thought process as I layer different textiles together and manipulate the fabric directly on the dress form to create an editorial silhouette. One of my favorite parts of this design is the fabric combination. Every fabric used in this project came from Mood Fabrics, and the quality truly speaks for itself. From the weight and structure to the beautiful drape, these fabrics made it possible to achieve the layered, high-fashion look I envisioned. 🧵 Shop the fabrics I used from Mood Fabrics here: Fabric 1: https://www.moodfabrics.com/products/yarn-dyed-lightweight-cotton-twill-flannel-white-red-and-green-plaid-deadstock-442971 Fabric 2: https://www.moodfabrics.com/products/seco-black-and-green-buffalo-check-cotton-flannel-328481 Fabric 3: https://www.moodfabrics.com/products/blue-and-gray-plaid-cotton-flannel-432019 Buttons: https://www.moodfabrics.com/products/vintage-swarovski-clustered-crystal-rhinestones-and-gold-metal-square-shank-back-button-58l-37mm-42099
