Rishita Paharya completed a project on the "Plisse' Effect" for her second year fashion design diploma. She experimented with different types of folds and pleating on paper to design dresses. This included boat-neck bodices, skirts with interconnected folds of varying lengths, and a stole made of diamond-shaped pleats. Rishita showcased her collection at the college's Identity Exhibition and annual event Kaleidoscope. The project report documents her design process and fulfills requirements for her diploma.

6. As you have seen in my previous pages, I have
learnt elements of design, diaper patterns and
also worked upon 2 dimensional geometric
motifs with help of lines and shapes which were
made with protector and compass manually and
also on corel and Photoshop. And by using lines
and shapes I made three dimensional forms
which creates the silhouette of the dress. I also
created pleats with the use of lines and shapes.
Without knowing design basics I will not be able
to make my creation.
In the Identity Exhibition 2017, which is students
work exhibition and was held on 9th and 10th
November wherein a lot of jury members came
to see our collection and a lot of students from
various schools came to hear us which helped
us to build our confidence.

Here is my working learnt at Dezyne E’cole
college that you will see in subsequent pages.

7. Pleats are basically folds in the fabric that
are formed by folding a fabric onto itself. It
is commonly used in clothing to gather a
wide piece of fabric to a narrower
circumference. In industries these sort of
folding are done by pleaters (a machine
which is an easy way to make pleats) this is
a very classic way of designing which not
only gives the attire a sophisticated and
appealing look but also carries flow and
movement which makes the dress stylish
yet comfortable for the wearer. Famous A
designers nowadays, have found their
inspiration in origami such as Issey Miyake,
it is also used in upholstery. I have made
various pleats by hand using method like
plait, gather, dart or wrinkle and many other
specific terms which are used to relate
manipulation of fabric.

10. Plisse’ Effect
The aesthetic design is derived from
experiments with folded paper. After
making all the foldings, I have chosen
these two foldings for my dress.
First I created foldings on paper so that I
was able to identify the estimation of
the fabric and look of the dress.

11. Collection
I have made a boat neck bodice, it has a
wide neckline that runs horizontally front
and back, almost to shoulder points,
across the collar bone. There are two mid
armhole dart for the fitting purpose.
The folds on my skirt are interlinked with
each other. I have used gradation
principle in it. The first tier is of 7’’ in
length and the second tier is of 11’’. The
skirt has a spherical structure.

12. I have made a stole by combining mountain
fold and isosceles triangle shape which are
formed by using pleating which allows the
garment to expand its shape when moving.
The stole is made using diamond shape
converting into pleats.

13. I have to create an underskirt for my
collection. As I am a learner, so I created
a petticoat skirt in which I inserted wires
so that it can take the shape I wanted.. I
took the inspiration from the crinoline
which were used in the time period of
(1790- 1900) From Revolution to
Frivolity by Charles Worth.
