btw how do u/were u taught 2 prep fabric 4 bias cutting
h-loom said to soak it through and hang it up for a day along the bias
i dont really have the vertical space for that so i figured id have to cut it into strips first that won't touch the ground when hung from my shower curtain

sales of basics will always, always outstrip your crazy coats and veil beanies. you still need those pieces, because they draw attention, they get you free publicity because photographers want them for their shoots, and you know, people think, i can't afford the coat or can't twerk the veil, but i can wear the tshirt. and the tshirt can be produced really quickly, out of fabric that you buy by tens of thousands of yards for a huge discount, and you don't really have to recreate it every season, and so you have a gigantic profit margin because material, labor, and r&d are reduced to nothing.

rick has a clear vision, he already has his collections and evolution planned out in advance.

anyway what im trying to say is that what i really hate about downmarket fashion from a design perspective is the insomnia curing austerity
clearly more effort is put into shaving off a few cm of fabric to save yardages on huge production volume than is put into the actual look of the garment
even if you're practically naked i want the clothes to be extravagant, opulent messes
just find an excuse to waste that shit

artistic appreciation

it's not like the designers show summer shows or anything
