Flounce, Ruffle, & More Flounce

Flounce: A flounce is a wide ruffle
Ruffle - Strip of cloth, lace or ribbon at the edge of a garment that creates a rippled effect.




This weeks topic is Flounce and Ruffles. In Pattern making we converted a straight skirt into a straight skirt with a flounce. In Draping we added a Flounce at the hem of our Shift Dress. And in Sewing Techniques we constructed an In Seam Ruffle sample.
Shortly we will be designing and constructing garments in class. List 4 to 6 ways that you can incorporate a flounce or a ruffle onto your original design ideas.
