Pastry shop displays always give me ideas for textured fabrics
The layers on a croissant inspired a ruffled sleeve design.

Take a small sketchbook when you visit bakeries and do quick studies of the pastries. A palmier's folded shape can become a beautiful pleated skirt pattern. I once translated the flaky top of a mille-feuille into a layered chiffon collar by playing with different white fabric swatches. It really helps to have those visual notes later when you're at the drafting table.

What about when a dress design makes you crave a certain pastry?
