Core Concept:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to make a more traditional qipao for my final project. In the past, I made a more modernized qipao where the zipper is on the back, the dress is shorter and less tight, and the fabric design is black with colorful butterflies. This time, I want to include more traditional elements. This specific qipao would have a zipper on the side and two slits. It would also be longer and tight-fitted. I also plan to use fabric with designs of birds and flowers. The qipao would also be made to fit me and hopefully be used as a dance costume for a future performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Materials:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have already purchased the fabric I plan to use to make the qipao. I am unsure what the material is called but it is thick and stretchy. For the buttons on the front, I plan to use Chinese qipao buttons that look like butterflies. I will also be using a long black zipper and nude bias tape. I would also need a sewing machine and other sewing-specific materials (like a zipper foot) which I will borrow from Ideate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Timeline:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11\/26 – finish cutting all the pieces, ready to be sewn together<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11\/27 – finish sewing everything together<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11\/28 – finish making minor changes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– The timeline above might change a little depending on when the buttons arrive<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are some images of the pattern, design, and what I hope the final outcome to look like:<\/p>\n\n\n
