My archives just posted a picture of this dress from two years ago today. Two years ago, I had just finished an online course for computerized pattern drafting, and I wasn’t really planning on making more dresses. Fashion design is hard, and unsteady work. You rely heavily on brick and mortar shops (who have an extremely high failure rate), your style goes in and out of demand at the blink of an eye, you’re selling a product that costs too much for most people (or that pays you $2/hr to remain competitive with #fastfashion ) and it’s a product that often highlights a person’s deepest insecurities. But knowing how to sew can really help people create an affordable #handmadewardrobe for themselves, and #sewists can learn how to adjust their own patterns to fit perfectly. I know that not everyone is interested in learning how to sew, but I’m happy that I can help make sustainable wardrobe choices for those who want to create for themselves. And for the rest of you: buy a dress already, there’s that one that’s been sitting around in my @etsyca shop for years waiting for you!
