Material consumption for the viscose dress

1. Decide how long your viscose dress should be, after the cut you can sew a mini dress, but also a floor-length dress. When you have decided where the hem of the dress should go, measure the distance from approx. 1 cm below your armpit to the hem of the dress.
2. Add 8 cm, that's the amount of fabric you need. If the fabric is very thin, you can double the top, in which case add another 25 cm. Example: length armpit - hem: 80 cm + 8 cm = 88 cm, if the top is not double, 80 cm + 25 cm + 4 cm = 104 cm, if the top is to be double-layered.

The calculations are based on a fabric width of 130 to 140 cm, which is sufficient for a dress size of 44/46. If the fabric is narrower or if you have a larger size, the bills are not correct.
