● Introduction

Almost every pop up dress has string ribbons for gathering the fabric. Usually, the string ribbons are hidden inside the ribbon loops, but we aimed to make the ribbons the main focus of the design.


● Textile

High-density silk taffeta, woven in Yonezawa, Yamagata Prefecture, is also known as paper taffeta, and is a fabric that can be shaped like paper. Silk taffeta is woven using a method called "yarn dyeing," in which the threads are dyed before being woven. The color of the silk changes depending on the angle from which it is viewed, and it has a beautiful luster that is unique to silk.


● Design

I made a 7cm wide cloth belt out of a taut silk taffeta fabric. Because it was so thick, I cut the tip at a 45 degree angle to give it a sharp look.
The main body is cut on the bias, which means the fabric is cut at a 45-degree angle. This creates a beautiful drape. There are no stitches on the body of the garment. Stitch-free tailoring makes the garment softer against the skin and gives the fabric a softer look. Bias stitching cannot be done without high cutting and sewing skills.
The belt loops are thick like workwear, adding a rugged look, but the tips are triangular for an elegant look.

 

● How to wear

Hold the belt in one hand and push the fabric in to gather it, then tie the belt to secure the gathers.
You can adjust the position of the belt loops by shifting the fabric. Change the position of the belt to suit your style.
