1. Find your inspiration:

• Look at fashion trends in magazines, online, or on celebrities.
• Pay attention to what you like and what flatters different body types.
• Consider special occasions or purposes for the dress (e.g., cocktail party, everyday wear, costume).

2. Sketch your idea as:

       You don't need to be a great artist! Even a basic sketch can help you visualize your design.

• Think about the silhouette, neckline, sleeves, length, and any embellishments.

3. Choose your fabrics:

• If you're new to sewing, start with easier-to-maneuver fabrics like cotton or linen.

4. Learn the basics of sewing (optional):
