Features of cut. How to build a pattern

This style is for the free spirit, as his most ardent admirers say. However, a dress in the style of a bokho, whose pattern is built to its own standards, will sit on the figure better. Therefore, it is desirable to still tinker with the removal of measurements and drawings. But do not think that sewing a dress is an impossible task. Take, for example, a simple model of a dress with a scent, for sewing which you will need to remove only two measures - OT (waist size) and OB (thigh size).

Colorful fabric with ethnic ornaments will create a vivid image. One-tone dress in the style of the Boho can be supplemented with expressive accessories: heavy bracelets, ringing earrings, bags with fringe and embroidery, embroidered boots or sandals with a lot of straps.

Operating procedure

1. We build a pattern of skirts. The width of the canvas is two OB.
   
2. We build the drawing of the bodice. The shape and depth of the neck can be made on your own. The oval or boat approaches this model perfectly.
   
3. We lay out the details of the pattern on the fabric, leave the allowances on the side seams of 1-1.5 cm, cut out.
4. One of the sloping edges of the skirt must be gathered, forming the tails. In this case, the length of the assembly seam should be 20 cm longer than the OT.
5. Pave the side seams.
6. Gently join the skirt and bottom. In the seam we draw in an elastic band.
7. If necessary, we process the sections of the neck, hem and sleeves. If the fabric does not crumble, this can not be done.

Knitted dresses

Do you know how and like to knit? Perfectly! Openwork lace fits perfectly into the image. Knitted dresses in the style of a boho often go beyond the limits of everyday fashion and fit even brides and graduates.

Knitted items can be combined with flying fabrics - this multi-layering will give the image lightness and a special charm. For finishing you can use satin ribbons, pearls, small shells, clay beads ... And how to choose a pattern that will be associated with a dress in the style of a boho?
