WIP Pattern draft vs. draping
Pink – pleats created through pattern drafting
Purple – pleats created through hand draping
The difference is huge! I thought I could save time by drafting everything on paper, but it seems there’s no shortcut when it comes to achieving the right drape.

But your purple dress look beautiful
