    I actually have a wonderful book by Rosie Martin called No Patterns Needed: DIY COUTURE from simple shapes. It's full of clothes you can make with just rectangle, circle, and triangle pieces of fabric.

    I think the circle dress with the circle top feels like "ghibli peasant" aesthetic. Definitely want to try making some circle clothes too (and I should have a surplus of fabric SOMEWHERE)

    Thank you for the "circles are pointless" wordplay on the sign! 😂

    You can also do a DOUBLE CIRCLE skirt. For ultimate swooshiness. Would only recommend for very light fabric, also you wont be able to stop twirling.

    To me it has a very distinctive similarities to the Korean Hanbok, and the red summer dress seems very k-fashion from now a days. The very clean, fresh, simple yet beautiful works that came out really fit in to that and they’re just truly amazing and summery

    I think things like this are great transformative pieces for pregnancy. You don't have to buy tons of special tops if you have something like this - and afterwards, you still can add pleats.

    Berets would be circle headwear. Also, for the coral dress, maybe add a drawstring or something to gather it at the back? That could help make the front a bit more fitted and wrangle the volume into a faux-bustle sort of thing, then still use a belt to define the waist, or make the drawstring really long to tie around your waist for apron-dress vibes.

    The dress reads as very Ghibli-core to me. Especially once you ties the straps up and layered it with the blouse!

    The closest established “aesthetic” might be mori-kei? A lot of the colours, natural materials, loose flowing shapes and lots of layers gives mori vibes, but they do tend to have more trims/lace and asymmetrical details, and less bright colours. Definitely they’re clothes that you could style into a bunch of different fashions!

    "Cottage core goes corporate poison ivy" added to my list of never would have thought of but absolutely adore 'made up aesthetics'. đŸ˜‚đŸ„°

    Tent dresses were popular in the 60s when I was a girl. They were a big circle with a yoke in the center. I had two - bold pink and bold lime. They had white polka dots and a white curved yoke. I had to make sure I wore shorts and a sleeveless T underneath so I didn't show anything private whenever I twirled around. I loved those dresses!

    The "slip dress" reminded me of the baby doll dresses of the 1990s. I used to love wearing mine with my combat boots. 😄

    These circle projects are very 1950's-60's to me. Around the time they were making caftans, capes, swing coats and bat-wing everything. Thanks Morgan, for the creative carrying out of a single idea to its end. It's certainly a springboard for creativity!

    I just realised what the red circle dress + top reminds me of - Little My. You've created some Moomin fashion. Moomin characters wear...really circular outfits come to think of it.

    I recently made my first circle skirt, and found that one of the advantages of making it from two half circles is...pockets! Love this exploration of of the possibilities!

    this feels like accessible fashion. making fashionable garments sometimes seems like it's beyond my understanding, but this all makes sense & looks super fly. I'm inspired to give it a try!

    When I was little, all of my dolls sported circle dresses of pretty much the same construction as your shirt before you put the sleeves in it. I feel like a whole doll wardrobe of those would be a fun project for a child

    The vibe you're looking for with the red dress w/white shirt under is "Eccentric Middle School Art Teacher"

    Last year I had created a good sized wardrobe out of all rectangles. I loved it! It had a real 1940’s/50’s vibe. This year, I am pregnant and know that at least most of the tops I made wont fit me come summer. When you made the first “circle tank top,” I was like, “That’s gonna be it, that’s what I’m gonna try to make for my belly.” So wish me luck, I hope it works!
