Fashion Design: Deep V-Neck Collar

This opening is called a deep v obviously because that is what it makes, it makes a deep v. Here I have it drawn with some curvature. It doesn't have to be, it can be ok , this would also be a deep v. Straight like the letter v. This gives it a little bit more of a finished, more of a finished softer look. This is very harsh, harsh is good, I'm not saying that harsh is bad, but also in order for you to have a deep v opening, you don't have to necessarily have it in the front. Remember think about everything that I give you and then take it and flip it some way in your head and let’s say we have the front of our garment, is going to be a turtleneck. Let’s give it a turtle neck. The back then is going to be where we have the deep v. And since it's a turtleneck in the front and going to a deep v you're going to have a little bit of drape obviously. But there and then you've created something that is totally different then what you started out with. That's the whole point.
