Get simple, effective tips for HOW and WHY should you design a unique dress, not copy another person’s dress.
Seriously. Never ever copy someone else’s dress.
It’s not fair to the designer, or the woman who bought the dress.
Can you imagine how YOU would feel if you walked or skated into a competition and saw someone wearing a dress very similar to yours?
You’d feel terrible. So please, never ever copy someone else’s dress. Not if you make the dress. Not if you have your dresses professionally made.
It is perfect to copy the FEEL of the dress!
