Color geometry is in fashion today. It is present everywhere - on prints of fabrics, on long cuffs of sleeves, lapels and, of course, on stitched slats. A great way to transform an old dress!

DRESS
The purple-pink polygonal placket and part of the belt transform an ordinary black sheath dress into a designer work.
YOU WILL NEED Dress. Fabric in contrast color OK. 25 x 45 cm; gasket non-woven G 785; sewing threads, magic tailor's chalk.
HOW TO MAKE On the seamy side of the flap, iron the non-woven fabric. With a tailor's chalk, draw a geometric figure (on our dress there is an insert on the front 42 cm long and 11 cm wide, side insert size approx. 6 x 17 cm). On the front bar, mow the corners, as shown in the photo, or make a geometric shape as you wish. Paste the strip on the dress, hem the edges to the hem.

JACKET
Pocket valves and wide cuffs of sleeves of the green apple color are a fashionable trend for such a classic as a black blazer.
YOU WILL NEED Jacket-blazer, flap of contrast fabric size. OK. 30 x 40 cm; gasket non-woven G 785; sewing threads
HOW TO MAKE To turn out sleeves on a jacket. Lining on the lower edge of the sleeves, pull up. Cut the sleeves about 20 cm from the bottom edge.On the cut-off part, strut the lower edge and lower seams of the sleeves. Iron the part and use it as a pattern. Place the pattern on a folded flap of fabric, give 2 cm of allowances along the upper cut. Cut out the detail of the sleeves. On the contrasting details of the sleeves, strengthen the hem of the bottom with a gasket. Stitch sleeve seams, iron allowances, iron allowances inward and sew by hand. Stitch sleeves on the lower sections of the jacket sleeves (seam width 1 cm). The seams must fit exactly together. Iron seam allowances down. Retract the lining of the sleeves in the sleeve and sew on the hem of the bottom of the sleeves. Pull sleeves out again.
For valves, measure the length of existing pockets on the jacket (we have sleeves with leaflets "in the frame"). Cut 2 valves = pocket length + 2 cm, width 14 cm. Fold the valves up to a width of 7 cm, grind the narrow sides, seam width 1 cm. Unscrew the valves and tighten them. To connect and overturn open sections of valves, put under the top leaflet and pin, making sure that the lining of the jacket under the jacket lies evenly and smoothly. Unscrew the top leaf up a little and stitch the valves on the burlap pockets.

How to handle batiste Airy, natural material is an excellent alternative to the famous silk chiffon, capricious and difficult to sew. Batiste - the fabric is plastic and light, like chiffon, but at work it is much more obedient.

PANTS
Medium-wide - it's a bit unfashionable. But super wide trousers are a class! How to remake old trousers? Very simple! Sew strips of a different color into the side seams - pants with stripes are in fashion today.
YOU WILL NEED Trousers, insert fabric (8 cm wide), snug strip, sewing threads, vanishing marker, scissors, pins, measuring tape, ruler.
STEP 1 Trousers are strung along the side seams and trim allowances along the seam line.

STEP 3 Iron the gasket on the lamp insert, push the insert face-to-face onto the trousers, on the belt turn 4 cm inwards, 1 cm along the bottom edge. Stitch the lamp insert.
