CONNECT WITH ME: Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/KianaBonolloDesigns Instagram & Tik Tok: kianabonollo Hey sewing pals :) Today I'll be showing you my entire process for creating the final project for my Couture Sewing Independent Studies Class. I'll be vlogging everything: inspiration, sketches, draping, prototyping, beading, and the final construction. And of course I will be showing you some couture sewing techniques and couture sewing resources along the way! Let me know what you thought of my final dress:) Love you all! ~Kiana MENTIONS: How to Make a Mood Board in Google Slides: https://youtu.be/2CElsf0WJrg Video with more in-depth Draping: https://youtu.be/i1dc0WWd5AA Couture Sewing Techniques by Claire B.
