Dear Nehzat
Was away and have just got back - really missed the sewing.
I would like to make a dress with 2" panels from shoulders to waistline and from waistline to bottom with flare on same panel. My shoulders are 15" and chest line is 42" with hips 42". My question is if the bust dart is closed where would the opening at the shoulders fall not obstructing the 2" panelling?
The bottom has flare starting from waistline to bottom, in this case what happens to waist darts both in front and back. All panels are identical. This has invisible zipper at the back.
Thanks

Panel Dress
Dear Nehzat
This is the type of dress I am referring to. Can you please explain how to construct this type of dress. My concern is where to open the side dart and waist dart in this type of outfits. I think there should be an invisible zipper at the back (can't see it). From shoulders to waist it is straight 3" inch panels and from waist flare to bottom with inserts of blue fabric. How to cut the blue inserts. There is a border too at the bottom. How to cut this border - should I cut on straight or cross fabric. Please explain.

Re: Panel Dress
Dear Rosie,
I need to see a picture of the whole garment to be able to explain what you need to do better.
Thanks,
