Alta gala: una intervención a partir de la técnica del draping

Abstract

Design currently occupies a very important place in our lives, we are continually consuming design, seeking quality, innovation, differentiating ourselves, and above all dressing in fashion. The high gala is exclusively for large-scale events, in other words, long dresses that are used for black-tie events, awards ceremonies, or beauty pageants; These dresses are generally single-use and designed for one occasion only. The present project aims to change this perspective through the use of the “draping technique.” This allows for changing patterns and turning a conventional dress into different versions of itself while continuing the use of the same fabric, which permits a single investment. This project is aimed at women between the ages of 18 and 35 years old who love to feel unique. These women will have the opportunity to invest in a dress they will use more than once while still getting the option and versatility to vary their designs and how they wear it. New design proposals will be introduced to the national market while managing to compete with the current market prices. (Nombre de la Empresa que hace Los vestidos) is one of the pioneering companies in using this technique, they create exclusive and authentic designs to fit the needs of their clients. This project is supported by the methodology applied during the process in which it was created, which considered aspects such as safety when putting on the dress, the final cost, the color, the trend, and the versatility of the project. The result, an aesthetic and functional dress for any event. This project was well accepted by the intended population to which it was directed because of the research performed. The results were demonstrated in surveys carried out with various queens, and people from our city who enjoy gala type events. With this acceptance, a section of photos was created to demonstrate the success of the dress with the draping techniques. Between the surveys and the photos, the dress’s success among the population was confirmed.
