Dear seamstress girls! Beginners in sewing! Today's post is for you. Since today we will consider the 4 lightest models of a summer sundress, and the best part is that a pattern for such a sundress is not needed)).

Initially, tailoring any, even simple, thing includes several stages:

• Building a specific model on a pattern basis
• Actually tailoring (tailoring includes knowledge of certain sewing technologiesdepending on the choice of model)

This entire list, of course, will not appeal to a novice seamstress. But summer is in full swing, and I want a new thing right now! .. Therefore, today we will sew a sundress without a pattern.

Let's start with the rubber band model..

This model is based on a rectangle. As a rule, the width of the rectangle = the width of the fabric, and this is usually 140-150 cm.

The height of the fabric rectangle depends on the desired length of the sundress. We measure the length from the level of the armpits on the figure.

The next step is to measure the area at the width of the fabric from above, which we will sew with an elastic band. Usually, either the area of ​​​​the bodice only, or the upper part of the sundress to the waist is sewn with an elastic band.

We will use an elastic band for this process, and here we have two options:

• sew the elastic thread in a zigzag, simply applying it to the wrong side of the fabric (in the process, be sure to stretch the elastic thread to create an assembly)
• or insert the elastic thread into the bobbin, then the process will be even more pleasant and automatic

Now you need to determine if the horizontal assembly on a thread will fill the entire part of the sundress to the waist (then we sew this part of the fabric to the waist with an elastic band, the distance between the horizontal lines = 1 cm approximately):

If the elastic thread does not completely fill the upper part of the sundress (as in the photo below), then we sew four lines on top (for a tight fit, since one line will not give it), and we also sew four lines with an elastic band at the waist:

We will get a rectangle assembled with an elastic band. We sew both of its sides - this will be either a side seam or a back middle seam of the back.

It remains only to process the lower cut of the sundress.

We turn 1 cm of fabric on the wrong side, sew it with a straight line, or iron it, then bend it another 1 cm and sew it from the front side of the fabric. It will turn out the processing of the cut with a double hem.

Sundress is ready)).

Dress without a pattern with a tie around the neck

Now let's look at another simple and interesting model.

This tie neck sundress. What does it consist of? From two rectangles sewn on the sides and connected at the neck with a ribbon, the ribbon is tied into a bow.

What measures do we need?

• sundress length (measured from the level of the base of the neck along the front)
• semicircumference of the hips
• the distance from the point of the base of the neck (where the neck and shoulder connect - I write in simple language, in more detail) and the point of the middle of the armpit (raise the arm and measure to the point where the side seam will begin).

We cut out two rectangles from the fabric with a length \u003d the length of a sundress + 4 cm for allowances and a width \u003d half-girth of the hips + an increase in freedom (5-8 cm, for example).

We retreat from the upper horizontal on the sides of 10 cm, from this point to the side we set aside the distance that we measured (from the neck to the armpit), cut off the resulting angle (as in the figure below on the left). We make a drawstring along the upper cut, bending the fabric to the wrong side.

So we process both rectangles.

Sew the rectangles on the sides.

We make a long ribbon and thread it into the drawstring. We hem the bottom of the product.

Strapless dress (no pattern)

At the heart of this sundress is also a rectangle, the width of which is slightly larger than the girth of the hips. Length = the desired length of the sundress.

Sewing steps:

1. We sew the side sections of the rectangle. There will be one side seam, or it will be the middle back seam.
2. We measure the girth above the chest under the arms with an elastic band, cut off the desired length of the elastic band.
3. Sew the elastic into the top section of the dress.
4. We cut out a strip for ruffle (assembly) 12 cm high and long = girth under the bust multiplied by 1.5.
5. We sew evenly the assembly to the upper cut of the dress.
6. If desired, we sew an elastic band on the waist.
7. If desired, the sundress can be fitted a little.
8. We process the lower cut with a hem.

The dress is ready! Wear with a belt.

Sundress trapeze without a pattern

The sequence of actions is as follows:

1. Cut out two squares with sides of 75 cm.
2. We put them in two layers.
3. We narrow them down a bit.
4. We measure the distance between the points on the shoulders. We put a dot in the center of the fabric. Set aside half of the measured distance from the center. We put points A and A1.
5. From point A we set aside the width of the shoulder (5-7 cm). Set aside the width of the shoulder on the other side.
6. Between the shoulders we cut out the neck of the desired depth (7-10 cm).
7. From points A and A1 we cut off the corner on the fabric, drawing this line to the middle of the fabric. You should get an inverted trapezoid with cut off corners, as in the figure below:

We sew these two parts along the dotted lines in the figure (along the side and shoulder seams).

We process the neck and bottom of the product.

We wear it with a belt))).

Make a sundress according to this step-by-step scheme:

• Soak the fabric before cutting, especially for materials with a high content of cotton.

• As a result, you will get two squares measuring 145 by 145 cm. Fold the canvases on top of each other in the form of a rhombus, mark points on each side, stepping back from the corner half of your own wide step. The distance between these points will correspond to the size of your wide step. Try on the workpiece, on each side mark two more points in the upper part.
• The main thing in the process of fitting is to outline the location of the shoulder seams. Soft folds must form on the chest. Also at this stage, decide on the length of the armhole.
• Mark the width of the shoulder seam (5 cm), then the length of the armhole, after folding the corner of the fabric inward. Baste all sides, try on again to make sure that you have correctly determined the size of the shoulder seams and armholes.
• Divide the cord into 4 pieces. Then insert two of them into the corners right under the armhole, sew the shoulder and side seams. Sew the fabrics together, stepping back 1 mm from the edge.

Important! It is better to make a seam on the front side, to save time, fix the wing on each side.

• Insert the remaining two pieces of cord from the wrong side by hand into the shoulder seams. It is they who will perform the function of fixing the sundress by tying a bra to the straps and draping the fabric in the chest area.
• Try on the product, fix the fabric in the corners with laces, tie at the back like an apron. Fasten the bottom corner of the dress with a button.

Sundress for full / pattern / sew without a pattern

The first thing to decide is the style of the sundress.

With a full figure, it is desirable that it be wide enough, but at the same time it does not look like a hoodie.

A triangular neckline will look great, which visually lengthens the neck and emphasizes the chest.

Suitable for a full figure and a style with a detachable waist, and the length of a sundress is recommended to be medium - knee-length.

After the style is chosen, you can proceed to the next step.

A sundress pattern for obese girls can be made both independently and already downloaded on the Internet.

Particular attention should be paid to the finishing of the sundress. It should be borne in mind that in no case should such an outfit be trimmed with ruffles and frills.

It is best to finish the fabric with a contrasting color, as the vertical reliefs will also visually reduce the volume.

When choosing a fabric, you need to remember that a large pattern, bright colors for full figures should not be purchased.

We sew sundresses for full

You don't have to take any measurements to do this. You will need a piece of fabric in the shape of a rectangle. Its length depends on your size and the number of desired folds. You also choose the height of the fabric - it is better if knee-deep or lower.

1. Sundress - a thing unique and versatile in every way. Not only women with ideal proportions, but also owners of significant advantages can afford to wear it. Today, a sundress is a model suitable for going out or attending a cultural event, as well as an outfit for the office or at home.

   General rules

   In order not to be disappointed and feel attractive when choosing a model for sewing a sundress, curvy ladies should follow some rules:

   • Fat women practically do not go for large drawings or large prints, so when choosing a fabric, stop your eyes on the material of slightly muted tones, with a small elongated pattern. Geometric and graphic patterns are also appropriate. The vertical stripe will slightly stretch the full figure and make the silhouette more slender.
   • It is worth refraining from aggravating accessories. Patch pockets will attract unnecessary attention to the owners of the tummy, and the model "under the neck" will make the chest more massive. Ruffles, frills and thin straps and a cut-off top are strictly prohibited.
   • When choosing a color, try to stick to your color type.
   • Skip the sundress with a trapeze silhouette.

   positive elements

   Owners of magnificent forms should focus on simple models with a minimum of accents. A fitted top with a high waist and wide flared skirt will look good. This silhouette will make you visually taller and slimmer, and you won't have to worry about having a tummy. In this case, it is possible to combine a plain top with a colorful or colored skirt. The corset top of a sundress with a light drapery of the bodice is also appropriate.

   The straps of a sundress should not be too thin - this will not only look ugly, but will also become an unnecessary accent. The recommended width of straps and straps for obese women starts from 5-6 cm.

   A V-neck will emphasize the seductiveness of a magnificent bust, and make the neck visually longer. Oval and square cutouts are also acceptable.

   Avoid baggy shapes!!! For overweight ladies, models with a fitted or semi-fitted silhouette are an excellent find. A wide sundress can be supplemented with a wide belt or belt. On light summer models, narrow straps are more appropriate.

   Sundresses and seasons

   Well suited for the warm season. They can be made from cotton fabrics for daytime use. And evening options will look more advantageous from silk and chiffon. They can be combined with a light tippet or scarf on a cool summer evening. Shoes for a summer sundress can be flat. In summer versions, on monophonic models, embroidery with threads in tone or cutwork is quite acceptable.

   More for autumn or winter look great in a shorter version. Sundresses for obese women, knee-length, can be freely completed with tight leggings or tight-fitting jeans. Dark-colored inserts on the sides of the product will help to additionally “draw” the silhouette and make it more flexible. It is advisable to choose shoes with a heel, albeit a small one.

   In the cold period of time, a sundress can be supplemented with a turtleneck or a sweater made of fine knitwear and matching in color. As a working option, a sundress with a straight semi-fitted silhouette and a light blouse or shirt made in a masculine style is suitable. Since most companies adhere to the dress code, it is better to make a sundress for the office in dark colors from a suit fabric. If you like to sew and you like to create clothes with your own hands, you can download a ready-made sundress pattern, having decided on the dimensional characteristics.

   Dedicated to those who are going on vacation.

   Any woman wants to be modern and stylish, but extra pounds seem to be a big obstacle on the way to the perfect appearance. Clothing that can emphasize the advantages of magnificent forms and delicately hide the flaws will turn a full woman into an attractive lady. Such miracles are able to create a summer sundress that fits perfectly on the figure. If you could not pick it up in the store, you can order the desired item in the studio. But other people's hands will not be able to accurately embody your idea, and such services are expensive. The best option would be to sew a sundress yourself, for this you will need sundress patterns for overweight women and your skillful hands.

   The choice of patterns of sundresses for obese women

   If you have a sewing machine and experience with it, then you can start choosing a style. Too wide sundress in the form of a hoodie will not hide your flaws, but will make you visually even thicker. The sundress should be semi-adjacent, slightly emphasizing your figure. If you are a happy owner of a luxurious bust, then you can focus on your chest with a deep neckline. A triangular neckline can emphasize a lush chest and visually lengthen the neck.

   Try to ensure that the patterns of sundresses for overweight women do not contain a cut-off waist, which will unsuccessfully divide the woman's figure into two parts. The most successful sundress length will be knee-deep or slightly lower. A long sundress to the toes will also be a winning option for a full woman.

   Next, you need to choose a good fabric for the future product. Shiny bright fabrics of poisonous colors are best put aside - they definitely won’t suit you. Also a bad choice would be fabrics with large patterns and horizontal stripes. One-color fabrics with vertical stripes or small geometric patterns work best for you. Choose a color according to your color type and personal taste preferences. Brunettes are best suited for purple, blue or pink fabrics. Blondes will look great in sundresses of gray, yellow and turquoise shades, and olive-colored fabric is suitable for brown-haired women.

   Don't overload your sundress with large embellishments and accessories like layered draperies, ruffles, buttons, or ruffles. This can enlarge your figure and add extra pounds. For decoration, you can add vertical reliefs or trim the sundress with a fabric in a contrasting color.

   - make a drawstring by bending and sewing the top edge. Then you need to put a beautiful ribbon into the drawstring so that its ends go into the neckline on the chest.

   - carefully work the hem and neckline of the sundress.
