When I made up the toile for the second skirt design, I really liked how the style lines and silhouette worked together and so I decided to develop the idea further.

| I first added pleats along the yolk as I felt this would draw in the waist more and accentuate the silhouette. |
I then created two box shapes out of separate pieces of fabric and placed them around different areas of the skirt, experimenting with alternative shapes and silhouettes. I found that adding the extra fabric could create a more structured silhouette (left), and could also add extra volume and shape to specific areas such as the hips (right).
These experimentations helped me to create a lot of design developments. I feel I'm really getting into the idea of experimenting on the stand. It's very useful to see an idea in 3-D form directly in front of you so you can see what elements stand out as possible further developments.
