Hello Hive.

Physical appearance can be deceptive, if you want a curvy lady, first undress her 😂😂😂😆

It feels exciting to come around the diy community today to share with everyone about how ladies come about extra butts and hips.

It is a beautiful thing for ladies in the one world to good physique commonly known ad figure 8.

Where the size of the bust waist and hips are adjusted to give in an appearance of beautiful 8shale which is a big bust and a tiny waist plus a complementing big Hips.

This has been a challenge for most ladies as they have undergone several surgeries to fit in that shape so that they can follow their modeling careers.

But today there is a huge advancement in the fashion world that we now altar the outfits to give you that shape instead if your body.
At least you get that figure when you are in any outfit and need to model at the time.

The outfit is a figure 8 and so is the wearer and this is called

The Hip and Bust padding

Hip padding

I can use different materials for this hip padding either of the following

• A single layer foam just like the one of a mattress

• A warden : material used in fashion for padding

• Duve fiber: Single layer fiber used in duve's the very one we use to cover and stay warm.

Here is a diy process of how to do a hip padding.

• Cut out your skirt measurements, adding extra allowance of at least 6inch.. For instance if your hip measurement is 32" you cut out a skirt with 38" hip size.

• Make a paper pattern for your skirt and determine where you will be adding the fibre.

For the center front of the skirt. Measure out 4" dart location. The fibre should get to the center of your skirt at the front, so that you won't look like a loaf of bread 😀

Here is the 4" measurements away from the knee length

It should come at least 4" above your knee length measurement such that it can complement your shape.
Padding below that means you will have thinne legs after the knees.

• Measure your seam allowances and zipper out as the pads are not meant to enter into your seam allowances.

Tbis is how the front and back pads look like.

• Next you cut out the lining of the skirt in thesame way.

Create a space in the lining for the pad to sit.

use the padded lining to turn the skirt.

Now we have a neatly swollen skirt that can add to your butts and hips.

• For the bust padding we have ready made bra cups in the market and while they are single foam I devised extra padding adding more bra foam to the cup, this makes anyone's bust bigger than the normal size.

While am done sewing a bustier or a corset, I simply use gum to stick in the cups into the outfits.
The wearer doesn't need to wear a brassiere under the dress.

Hers is the bust padding I sewed and added to my bust.

If you want go form a cup, just create a corset pattern using your bust span and you will get a cup an exact size of your bust.
Cut out a bra foam in that shape and go ahead with fixing it into your outfits.
