How to emphasize the waist

Send

Very simple: take clothes of a classic style, for example, a blouse, and alter in the most unusual, but simple way!

TURN
Spread the side seams on the shelves to the length of the lower sections of the shelves. Neaten sections. Paste the left side seam of the shelf on the right side seam of the shelf, then similarly the right one on the left. Re-start the side seams, sew the zipper on the right side.

TRANSFER
A piece of suitable fabric (for size 36-40 x 55 cm) should be sewn along the contour. Squeeze shorter sections up to 22 cm, stitch on the back at a distance of 3.5 cm behind the side seam, twist. Fasten the other end of the fabric with 5 buttons.

TOUCH
On this blouse, instead of tucks at the waist, original volumetric tucks are made.

YOU WILL NEED Blouse, knife-spreader, needles and threads for sewing, elastic threads, 4 wooden beads (diam. 10 mm), mannequin.

STEP 1 With a knife, spread the tucks on the shelves. Wear a blouse on a mannequin.

STEP 2 On the waist line on each side, wrap 2 beads with a cloth and fix them with elastic threads. Beads are wrapped with fabric on the front side, elastic threads are wrapped on the wrong side.

STEP 3 Remove the blouse from the mannequin, turn it on the wrong side. Remove the beads, as well as the elastic threads, at the same time fix the resulting pinches with small stitches with thread for sewing.
