Working on hemming the robes, and first time was a bit wonky, so having to fix. I have it pinned up, and wanted to get another look over before stitching!

Keep working on it. The pictures of robes look fine so far.

Be mindful of your hem height. You definetly do not want your velvet touching the ground I can see in some spots this is still the case. Definetly get someone to hem it while you are wearing it.

Thank you! This is what I am working on now, and it is been a struggle to get right. I know it cannot be more than 1” off the ground so am more worried about being too short! Ideal height is just off the ground?Kemen wrote:Be mindful of your hem height. You definetly do not want your velvet touching the ground I can see in some spots this is still the case.

You want it so it looks like its floating and your folds hang straight down. The 1inch is quite low as it is so aim for that, but pin it and look to see if your happy with it. Some movie shots I have researched maybe contradictory to the 1inch notion, but thats what the current CRL is and what your GML will critique you on.
