More details on the horizontal dart! ...@Raquel...<br /><br />More details on the horizontal dart! From my mom:<br />"Well, I don’t know everything about it, but I have seen it on 1890s ball gowns (patterns and in Janet Arnold’s patterns of History, I think). When the whole bodice needs to fit closely, it helps to pull in the fabric between the breasts, As you saw on your dress, it emphasizes the sweetheart shape of the neckline and also pulls the fabric closer to the body, both between the breasts and also along the edge of the neckline. (We don’t want a gap there where your dancing partner could look down your dress, now do we?)<br /><br />I’m sure it was invented by resourceful dressmakers trying to get that smooth, “poured-on wax” look for their clients."Adventures in Dressmakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276208940528297433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-45295584206976587942011-04-26T22:56:54.480-07:002011-04-26T22:56:54.480-07:00Aaaw, thanks, everyone!
