Imbricated Outfit Toolkit

Intermediate

Introduction

  • The Inspiration
  • Video

Building the Frame

  • Start With A quick-release frame
  • Core technique and the secret to make this quick-release!
  • Adding a second wrap to make it a Double Wrap Frame
  • Adding a second wrap to make two separate frame lines, spaced closely together
  • Frame with shoulder straps, giving 2 points of support
  • Frame with shoulder straps, giving 3 points of support
  • Different approach: Use a separate rope.
  • If you need to add a new rope to a frame line

Draping the Pattern

  • Row 1 - The core draping pattern … consistency is key!
  • So. Many. Variations. (Lots of ways to lay down elements to create stunning patterns)
  • Row 2+, Option 1 – Add a new frame line
  • Row 2+, Option 2 – No new anchor line. Attach to the bottoms of the previous row instead.
  • Row 2+, Option 3 – Do not add a new line & double back

Examples & Variations

  • Example 1 – A flirty skirt!
  • Using the quick-release feature (a demonstration)
  • Example 2 – The pattern that makes this reuseable (tie-once-wear-many!)
  • Example 3 – ‘Tidefall’ by GodlyMana

Example 3 – ‘Tidefall’ by GodlyMana

In the ‘Tidefall’ tutorial, I use the techniques from above to replicate this very cool design by GodlyMana. Here are a few sample shots. For more detail, check out the full tutorial!
