Decoding Dior: a George Brown College & Rom Collaboration DECODING DIOR: A GEORGE BROWN COLLEGE & ROM COLLABORATION In honor of 70 years of Christian Dior fashion, an original exhibition at Royal Ontario Museum launched celebrating the first ten years of Christian Dior haute couture.

  • Glossary of Sewing Terms
    Glossary of Sewing Terms Judith Christensen Professional Patternmaker ClothingPatterns101 Why Do You Need to Know Sewing Terms? There are quite a few sewing terms that you’ll need to know to be able to properly follow pattern instructions. If you’ve been sewing for a long time, you’ll probably know many of these terms – or at least, you know the technique, but might not know what it’s called. You’ll run across terms like “shirring”, “ease”, and “blousing”, and will need to be able to identify center front and the right side of the fabric. This brief glossary of sewing terms is designed to help you navigate your pattern, whether it’s one you purchased at a fabric store or downloaded from an online designer. You’ll find links within the glossary to “how-to” videos or more information at ClothingPatterns101.com Don’t worry – there’s no homework and no test! Just keep this glossary handy for reference when you need it! 2 A – Appliqué – A method of surface decoration made by cutting a decorative shape from fabric and stitching it to the surface of the piece being decorated. The stitching can be by hand (blanket stitch) or machine (zigzag or a decorative stitch). Armhole – The portion of the garment through which the arm extends, or a sleeve is sewn. Armholes come in many shapes and configurations, and can be an interesting part of a design. B - Backtack or backstitch – Stitches used at the beginning and end of a seam to secure the threads. To backstitch, stitch 2 or 3 stitches forward, then 2 or 3 stitches in reverse; then proceed to stitch the seam and repeat the backstitch at the end of the seam.

  • 2000 Proceedings Cincinnati, OH
    Cincinnati, OH USA 2000 Proceedings DOGWOOD IN GREEN AND GOLD Tammy Abbey Central Washington University, Ellensburg, WA 98926 The purpose in creating this piece is to design an elegant garment through the combination of two very different techniques, metalsmithing and sewing. This design was inspired by extensive study in both metalworking and sewing and by blooming dogwood. The garment can be described as a dark green, fully lined dress in a polyester crepe satin. It is designed with princess lines and a gold charmeuse godet in the back. The dress is strapless and supported by the metal "lace." The "lace" is formed with brass blossoms and leaves that wrap the shoulders and overlap the front and the back of the dress. Brass blossoms also accent the godet. Construction began with an original pattern which was hand drafted. A muslin test garment was sewn, fitted and used to adjust the pattern. The main body of the dress was sewn and an invisible zipper was installed. A godet was sewn into the back. A polyester lining was sewn and then added to the dress. After the body of the dress was completed, the metal work began. Blossoms and leaves were cut from sheet brass. Then each was individually chased (hand shaped with the use of hammers and tools.) The pieces were given a copper patina (coloring) and brass brushed to a matte golden color. A dress form was used to assemble a base web of brass chain onto which the blossoms were sewn into place with thread and wire. Two blossoms and chain were added in the back to accent the godet and to contain it.

Godets cre- ate a pretty silhouette and enhance movement in a skirt or dress. ey require precise stitching, but there is a foolproof method that relies on fusible tape to install the in-seam variety. To learn the technique, try making the dress shown with six in-seam godets. A template for the design, in six sizes for bust mea- surements from 30 inches to 52 inches, is available at readsMagazine.com. Once you know the godet insertion technique, you can easily apply the method to tunic, skirt, or dress projects.

Furthermore to realize and examine the potential of the fabrics and materials which could be manipulated using different techniques and processes to innovative designs and artwork which could be applied to fine art, originate textile or fashion scenario. On the other hand, to develop different ways of altering fabric to provide contrasts, to create a sense of fullness, and create surface effects. Some of these methods are very old, but contemporary fabric artists and fashion designers continued to use them and adapt them in new styles.

  • 2019 Proceedings Las Vegas, Nevada
    Las Vegas, Nevada 201 9 Proceedings 6 Wire: Flow Belinda T. Orzada, M. Jo Kallal, Cheyenne Smith, Mikayla DuBreuil, and Wing Tang Key words: FEA Model, music, performance attire, apparel design Conceptual statement The flow of notes on sheets of music were visually translated to an undulating ribbon effect on an evening dress for an erhu musician’s performance attire. The impetus for this design came from a call from a colleague in the music department at my university requesting performance attire for a major venue for the three-person musical ensemble, 6-Wire in which he performs and also directs. Usually each member of the group purchases garments from retail stores to wear during performances, but this event was special, a premiere at Carnegie Hall in New York City. Custom performance wear was a new experience, but opportune for such a significant event. With the assistance of a design team, I ultimately designed and executed two garments for each of the three musicians to wear at this and future performances; the focus of this paper is one custom design for the female musician who plays an erhu. Aesthetic properties and Visual Impact “Line, material and decorative detail combine to create [a] costume’s movement quality” (McLean, 2012, p. 206). Performance attire for musicians must allow expression and be aesthetically pleasing, while at the same time be perfectly fitted to the musician to enhance movement not hinder it. Lamb’s and Kallal’s (1992) FEA Consumer Needs Model provided the theoretical framework for this design. Garments for musical performances necessitate a perfect balance between the three components of the FEA Model.

The project is sponsored by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), and has been named the Apparel Product Data Exchange Standard (APDES) project. The APDES project utilizes the techniques being used by and developed for the Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data (STEP). STEP is an emerging international standard for representing the physical and functional characteristics of a product throughout the product’s life cycle. Formal standards for STEP are being published under the auspices of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in the document series 10303-X. Many of the information requirements, as well as the software tools being developed to support STEP, are applicable for any manufacturing industry.
