Handkerchief Dress draping Zero-Waste design

Elena explains the draping of Madeleine Vionnet' Handkerchief Dress, which consists of four identical rectangular pieces of fabric in a shape of a square where the measurement of square' side equals the fabric width. Madeleine Vionnet (1876 – 1975) is a prominent fashion designer and is best known for her Grecian style dresses. She was called an "architect among dress-makers" and is also known for her input into bias cut technique. Handkerchief dress is easy-to-undertake, representative example of zero-waste design. The demo is a part of 'Zero-Waste fashion' free session that has been delivered in Saigon for designers, students and larger audience. EWST fashionlab offers online courses and private classes.
