  • Effects of Combinations of Patternmaking Methods and Dress Forms on Garment Appearance
    AUTEX Research Journal, Vol. 17, No 3, September 2017, DOI: 10.1515/aut-2016-0020 © AUTEX EFFECTS OF COMBINATIONS OF PATTERNMAKING METHODS AND DRESS FORMS ON GARMENT APPEARANCE Chinami Fujii1, Masayuki Takatera2, KyoungOk Kim2 1Shinshu University, Graduate School of Science and Technology, Ueda, Nagano, 3-15-1 Tokida, 386-8567, Japan. 2Division of Kansei and Fashion Engineering, Institute for Fiber Engineering (IFES), Interdisciplinary Cluster for Cutting Edge Faculty of Textile Science and Technology, Shinshu University, 3-15-1 Tokida, Ueda, Nagano 386-8567, Japan. Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: We investigated the effects of the combinations of patternmaking methods and dress forms on the appearance of a garment. Six upper garments were made using three patternmaking methods used in France, Italy, and Japan, and two dress forms made in Japan and France. The patterns and the appearances of the garments were compared using geometrical measurements. Sensory evaluations of the differences in garment appearance and fit on each dress form were also carried out. In the patterns, the positions of bust and waist darts were different. The waist dart length, bust dart length, and positions of the bust top were different depending on the patternmaking method, even when the same dress form was used. This was a result of differences in the measurements used and the calculation methods employed for other dimensions. This was because the ideal body shape was different for each patternmaking method. Even for garments produced for the same dress form, the appearances of the shoulder, bust, and waist from the front, side, and back views were different depending on the patternmaking method.

  • Lining Techniques... Made Easy
    CT-MMB.004 Lining Techniques Jacket and Coat Linings Made Easy A garment lining is generally referred to and treated as a “supportive” fabric. As a rule, a lining eliminates the need for time-consuming seam finishes while lengthening the life and durability of the fashion garment. According to Kathleen Spike, noted clothing writer, “Nothing places a garment in the ‘custom’ or ‘couture’ category as distinctly as a professionally applied lining.” 1 Lining – a separate, but attached inner layer of fabric construction which conceals or covers the inside garment construction. STANDARDS OF A WELL-MADE/APPLIED GARMENT LINING A suitable lining fabric: Is compatible with garment fabric in terms of care and fiber content. It can be cleaned in the same manner as the garment. Can be either woven or knit fabric as long as it is compatible with the garment fashion fabric. Permits and accommodates the necessary “give” and recovery needed for body movement. Is firm, yet not bulky; colorfast to perspiration and body oils; absorbent or “breathable.” Is opaque so as not to see the inside construction of the garment. Matches or coordinates with the garment fashion fabric. Has a smooth surface texture to permit the garment to be taken on and off the body with ease. Weight is the same or somewhat lighter and softer than the fashion fabric so as not to dominate the fashion garment. Is preshrunk (pre-washed or dry-cleaned) prior to cutting. The completed lining: Is cut sufficiently larger than the fashion garment to provide length and width fitting ease (generally at center back, armhole, hem edge, elbow, sleeve hem, shoulder).

  • A Novice's Guide to Draping By: Joboenvogue
    A Novice's Guide to Draping By: joboenvogue http://www.burdastyle.com/techniques/a-novices-guide-to-draping This is from my own experience with draping, so it’s only going to be advice for people like me who had to figure it out on their own! But my final product was beautiful, and so I thought I’d share my techniques for draping. NOTE: in this project I am using polyester chiffon. Gross, I know, but I needed to due to budget and contest requirements, but it still looks fantastic, so don’t be afraid! Step 1 — Get inspired! A Novice's Guide to Draping 1 Go out and find images that will help guide you in the draping process. As a draping novice, I found a picture of a bodice that was similar to the bodice I wanted to create for the gown I'm making. This picture helped me tons when I got frustrated with the fabric. Look at how the fabric folds, look at the fabric's direction. Does it stay close to the body or flow freely away? Does it have a lot of texture or is it more fluid? Take these qualities into account for your own creation. Step 2 — Prepare your foundation Step 1 — Get inspired! 2 You need a strong foundation for a house, and it goes the same with clothing, especially for when you're hanging an entirely different piece of fabric onto your clothing. If your base isn't strong enough, the whole piece will flop over! I decided to underline my bodice with muslin first--that way my dress will be able to hold up the skirt, the draping, and so on.

    4-H CDM Skill-a-Thon Sewing & Clothing ID The photos shown here are only one option of what an item may look like. Other options are available. Revised November 2020 Batik - Indonesian technique of wax resist dyeing applied to whole cloth. This technique originated from Java, Indonesia. It is made either by drawing dots and lines of the resist with a spouted tool called a tjanting, or by printing the resist with a copper stamp called a cap. Broadcloth - A very lightweight, smooth, flat looking fabric, with no pattern in the weave of the threads. It is similar in quality to pinpoint fabric but has less texture. This usually means it is slightly more transparent and not as shiny as the pinpoint. Chambray - A plain weave fabric woven with a colored yarn in the warp and a white yarn in the weft. Corduroy - A fabric with a distinct pattern, a “cord” or wale. It is mostly composed of tufted cords, sometimes exhibiting a channel (bare to the base fabric) between the tufts. Cotton - A fabric made from the fiber of its namesake plant. It is good for first time sewers to use because it’s easy to work with and used for everyday clothing. Eyelet - A type of fabric that has holes that are edged using a buttonhole stitch. The holes are precisely sized and situated to create a pattern or patterns, often floral designs or abstract geometric arrangements. Faux Fur - A fabric fashioned to simulate genuine animal hair. It is known as a pile fabric and is typically made from polymeric fibers that are processed, dyed, and cut to match a specific texture and color.

  • Lesson Guide Bustier Dress Draping: Intermediate Module 1 – Prepare the Dress Form
    Lesson Guide Bustier Dress Draping: Intermediate Module 1 – Prepare the Dress Form Step 1A The first step when draping the bustier is to apply style tape to your dress form to establish your guidelines and neckline styleline. Start by taping across the bust level from the left apex across to the right apex. 1 Module 1 – Prepare the Dress Form Step 1B Tape the desired neckline from center front to center back. At the side seam don’t drop lower than 1” from the armplate. 2 Module 1 – Prepare the Dress Form Step 1C For beginners, it is a good idea to apply your bust level tape from center front to the side seam. This will make it easier when balancing the side front panel. Be sure the tape is level to the floor. 3 Module 1 – Prepare the Dress Form Step 1D We will be using the princess lines of the dress form both front and back as the prin- cess stylelines for this bustier. 4 Module 1 – Prepare the Dress Form Step 2A For the skirt, measure down 7” from the bottom of the waist tape. Apply the hip style tape horizontally around the right half of the dress form. You must be sure that the hipline is parallel to the floor. 5 Module 1 – Prepare the Dress Form Step 2B You can check this by resting an L Square on the table and find the number on the ruler that corresponds to center front at the bottom of the hip tape. Your style tape should align at that number as you turn the dress form from front to back.
