Masters of Draping!

I really enjoyed the draping lesson, and since I had not done much of it before was really impressed with what I developed. I am a huge fan of the pioneer of draping Madame Gres..........


As well as the Grecian inspired jersey pieces I love her more structured work using stiffer wovens.



A lot of modern designers now use draping in different ways but one of my favourite labels who does is Lanvin. I think the use of draping lots of different textured/weight fabrics creates classic and elegant shapes in an innovative and new way.
