Here are some pictures of the insides of the purple print dress, which is now complete. These are details of the inside so you can see how I put it together and finished it. First, darts and pleats were put in the bodice pieces. Then the fashion fabric and lining of the bodice pieces were treated as one and sewn together.

Here's the front with all the seams bound with double fold bias tape.

My solution for attaching a skirt lining when the bodice is flat-lined, inspired by historical techniques. (Anyone know a different way?) I sewed the skirt lining to a tape and then sewed the tape in at the waist by hand. This also covers up the seam allowances of the bodice. I could have tacked the skirt lining down around the zipper, but I was pretty tired and lazy by that point, and the fashion fabric was opaque enough that it's not noticeable.


So, those are the insides.

I finished the dress on Saturday, but didn't take pictures that night because I was running late, so you don't get to see me all dolled up. Some of my school friends were surprised at how I looked, and one didn't even recognize me, so I guess I clean up well! lol ;) I took these pictures today. Standard front and back pics.
