This trend continues into the blocking out of the tones in her dress. (Fig.05) Using the burnt orange to increase the highlights and darken the shadows in the folds of the fabric. I modify the ‘wing’ for lack of a better word (I’m not a seamstress after all) on the front of her dress to look more like a shield and follow the form of her body more closely.

Step 4:
I want to make her dress look less plain and more ornate so I decide to include a pattern to the blue of her upper dress and to the draping fabric down her legs (Fig.06) firstly making another layer so I don’t do anything I can’t take back.
Fig.06
I settle on the design and flatten the blue dress layer and the pattern layer together and adjust it to fit the folds of the fabric across her chest, around her shoulders and down the front of her dress. (Fig.07 & 8).
