Dresses made of scarves, sewn by hand, look amazing! Light, airy and incredibly pleasant to the touch. This is the best option for sultry summer. In addition to lightweight fabrics, you can use shawls made of denser silk or crepe de chine to make them.

To sew dresses from handkerchiefs with our own hands, our compatriots learned during the times of total deficit. In those days, clothes were tight in stores, but scarves did not fall into the category of scarce goods. AT In general, not every designer was ready to cut ready-made scarves, and some considered such actions blasphemous - after all, every shawl was a work of applied art.

The first designer, who decided to make a dress from kerchiefs, was Vyacheslav Zaitsev. He used Pavlov-Posad shawls. These were decent models, but they did not become a trend. Rather, they were perceived as the whim of the fashion designer.

Naturally, the garment industry could not make the sewing of such clothes in bulk, so only those who could sew and, in addition, have good taste, could sew dresses from handkerchiefs with their own hands.

Original models made of silk handkerchiefs are indispensable in the resort. If you are interested in this idea, remember that the larger the perimeter of the scarf, the longer and freer the finished product will be. In addition, pay close attention to the color and texture of the selected products: they must match each other.
