You will need: invisible zipper, tough corsage tape (like for pants bottom) (1/4) wide, double-sided fusible tape (web).

Attention! Fabric consumption varies depending on the size of garment. First of all, print out paper patterns and lay them out at the width of fabric/ knit you plan to use, to see how much fabric you will need.

When sewing the garment, pay attention to notches- they must coincide.

Silk Shiffon: 1. Veil 2 pieces

You can use shell fabric for lining parts. The lining parts should be cut shorter, the length of slits.
