Summary
This project transforms a basic bodice block into a classic princess seam design by redirecting waist darts into smooth, continuous seams from shoulder to waist on both front and back. The result is a sculpted, elegant silhouette that pairs seamlessly with a pleated skirt, where aligned pleats enhance balance and visual flow.
