Eva is fitting a dress in muslin and making corrections before beginning it in the fair trade fabric she has chosen. The shoulder seams on the dress were not aligning properly and was causing the back seam to be off as well. Most of Eva's garments have drop holes or pockets, making it incredibly important for her to fit everything perfectly before cutting into fabric to create these holes.
Eva has chosen to use a white cotton sateen fabric for her dress. The sateen fabric has a lustrous sheen yet is soft and light weight enough to allow the body of the garment to move as her model moves down the runway.
Grace assists Eva adjust the shoulder seam of her dress. As two of our featured designers work together to perfect this garment, the extreme attention to detail and painstaking precision that is required as part of the creative apparel design process could not be more apparent.
