You've just created this beautiful charmeuse gown. The fit is perfect, it drapes beautifully, and now it's time to hem. Don't be afraid!!
Finish off your edge with your serger first. Then a great tip when hemming charmeuse is to iron-on featherweight interfacing or baste organza to your hemming allowance. The additional interfacing gives the fabric just enough substance to make your life easier.
An additional design detail that you can add to the garment would be to use a double needle and your hem will have a cover stitch look.
Any other great suggestions for working with charmeuse? Let us know!
