Dresses with voluminous flowers

Since ancient times, flowers have emphasized tenderness and beauty, giving a unique look to any outfit.

Flowers adorn hairstyles, hats, decorate the bodices of dresses or enliven the skirts of elegant toilets.

In the clothing collections of European designers, fabric flowers have already taken a strong place as a way to emphasize femininity and beauty.

Fabric flowers are used not only to decorate clothes, but also for accessories and jewelry.

Fabric flowers can be created realistic or fantasy - lush roses and chrysanthemums, delicate lilies and irises, scarlet poppies, snow-white daisies.

Cut out several layers of different sizes from the fabric.

Make sure that the flower petals are bent to one side. The best way to do this is to hold the flower above the flame, lowering it carefully and watching the petals swirl.

When the edges of all the flowers are processed, we collect them into finished flowers. To do this, we insert smaller flowers into large ones like nesting dolls in descending size. You get two of these flowers.

We select the central bead and sew it into the middle, at the same time fastening all our flowers in the middle into one voluminous flower.

Then we select small beads or beads and sew them around the central bead

You can arrange fabrics with different textures and colors. The main thing is that they look harmoniously together.

If, instead of the shape of a flower, just cut out circles from the fabric and also process their edges with a candle, then you can collect a flower of a different shape.

Examples of dresses decorated with fabric flowers:

Belt with flowers in country style

Belt with flowers.

From small scraps of fabric such as lace, tulle, organza, and a few pretty pearl or crystal beads, you can create your own fancy belt.

Below are a few options for the design of the belt. You can use one of them, supplement or somehow change.

The belt is based on a traditional two-sided, wide satin ribbon.

Take some time to cut out the petals from the fabric of your choice. Get creative with the petal shapes, fabric combinations, and patterns. Flowers should be grouped in a bouquet on the belt. This way they look more natural.

And here is the sequence of applying colors to the belt.

To create a relief edge of the petals, use a burning candle.

You can also use a couple of mesh and lace petals, do not melt, just cut out. In the example, 18 circles of different sizes were used for the central flower, the largest being 12 cm in diameter (before melting).

For fluffy flowers, you can fold some of your circles in half or quarters.

Sew the petals in the center to secure the shape. Sew on beads and pearls. Arrange the flowers on the satin ribbon close together and secure with pins.

For creativity, cut three leaves from a coarser fabric and insert them under the flower petals.

Cut out thin feathers from the remnants of the satin ribbon, singe the edges, insert under the petals. After the bouquet is completely ready, sew it to the ribbon.
