Londa Rohlfing - Memory T-Shirt
Londa Rohlfing - Memory T-Shirt Londa digs in, filters, and combines men’s collared polo knit shirts and seven dress shirts into strikingly artistic tops so the men in your life better lock their closets! Mannequin 1: The Khaki/Black Shirt Interesting collar edge - how it flows over the shoulder to the back 1. Asymmetrical/Informal Balance - accented with woven striped shirt set in from behind to fill in low neckline. 2. Combination of textures - couched edges for ‘finish’ - more on how to couch later. Yarn ‘connects’ everything, finishes edges. 3. Light hand stitching as center of interest - also on back, and sleeves 4. Bound neckline using knit fabric 5. Even Daddy’s ‘spot’ is OK! 6. Original uneven hemline - bound slits at side seams Mannequin 2: The Periwinkle Shirt 1. Symmetrical/Formal balance 2. Curved line of inset check knit shirt flows over the shoulder/sleeve seam - had to stitch shoulder seams, insert sleeves before working the check shirt ‘fill-in’ at the chest. 3. Reason for lower yoke, to cover up the logo embroidery at left chest. 4. Wider at shoulders always makes hips look slimmer 5. Use of polo collar - wrong side as ‘outside’ to not show ‘worn’ folded edge of collar. 6. Bias is ALWAYS better/more flattering - check shirt inset. 7. ALWAYS stay-stitch neckline edges. 8. Bound neckline finished with bias tie fabric. 9. Bias cut 2 layer ‘Fabric Fur’ + yarn = the trim. 10. Somewhat wild eye-attracting ‘hairy’ Couched yarn connects everything and adds some ‘pizazz. 11. Sleeves - tie label covers insignia at sleeve, bias Fabric Fur + yarn trim connects with rest of the shirt.

2013 Proceedings New Orleans, Louisiana 70 Years of Fashion In
New Orleans, Louisiana 2013 Proceedings 70 Years of Fashion in the Chinese Dress—Exploring Sociocultural influences on Chinese Qipao’s Hemline Height and Waistline Fit in 1920s-1980s Lushan Sun, University of Missouri, USA Melody LeHew, Kansas State University, USA Keywords: Chinese, qipao, hemline, waistline The evolving dynasties and periods in Chinese history have always been accompanied with unique changes in its dress. Under the globalized society today, Chinese fashion has also left its footprint in the international fashion industry through which the world gains further understanding of the Chinese culture. The Chinese dress for woman, qipao or cheongsam in Cantonese, has evolved through a variety of silhouettes and styles under the quick changing cultural environment in the 1900s. Today, it has been accepted and internationally recognized as the distinctive national dress for the Chinese woman. According to the principle of historical continuity, “each new fashion is an outgrowth or elaboration of the previously existing fashion” (Sproles, 1981, p.117). Qipao may be traced back as early as Shang dynasty (1600-1046 B.C.) in a form of long robe, and it has flourished through different cultures and dynasties and periods in China (Liu, 2009). Its most commonly known origin lies in Qing dynasty (1644-1911) in the Chinese feudal society. Elements of both Manchu and Han ethnic dresses contributed in shaping the original qipao style during this time. The Republican Era (1911-1949), a transitional time from the feudal to modern Chinese society, accompanied with revolutionary changes in qipao styles. During this period, qipao was the main site of woman’s fashion and became “a stage for debates about sex, gender roles, aesthetics, the economy, and the nation” (Finanne, 2007, p.141).

Tailoring Series TECHNIQUES for TAILORING UNDERLINING a TAILORED GARMENT—Underlining Is a Second Layer of Fabric. It Is Cut By
tailoring series TECHNIQUES FOR TAILORING UNDERLINING A TAILORED GARMENT—Underlining is a second layer of fabric. It is cut by the garment pattern pieces and staystitched to the wrong side of the corresponding outer sections before any seams are joined. The two layers are then handled as one. As a general guide, most suit jackets and coats look more pro- fessional when underlined. Underlining is especially recommended for lightweight wool materials, loosely woven materials and light- colored materials. For additional information on selecting fabrics for underlining and applying the underlining, see Lining a Shirt 01' Dress HE 72, N. C. Agricultural Extension Service. STAYSTITCHING—Staystitch all outer garment pieces before construction begins. If garment is underlined, stays-titching is done when the two layers of fabric are sewn together. Staystitch 1/3 in. outside seamline (on the seam allowance). Stay- stitch “ with matching cotton thread on all curved *areas that may stretch during construction such as necklines, side seams, shoulder seams, armholes, and side seams of skirt. Use directional stitching always to prevent stretching of fabric and to prevent one layer of fabric from riding. The direction to stitch is indicated by small arrows on the pattern on the seamlines. INTERFACINGS—Select a high quality hair canvas for the front and collar of coats and jackets. The percentage of wool indicates the quality—the higher the wool content of the canvas the better the quality. Since a high percentage of wool makes the hair canvas fairly dark in color, it cannot be used successfully under light-colored fabrics. In these cases use an interfacing lighter in color and lower in wool content.

ZIPPERS ACKNOWLEDGMENT Thanks Are Due to Mrs
UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII . COOPERATIVE EXTENSION SERVICE' HOME ECONOMICS CIRCULAR 352 ZIPPERS ACKNOWLEDGMENT Thanks are due to Mrs. Helene Horimoto for her cooperation in serving as the mod e 1 for the photographs, as well as for her secre tarial assistance. The professional coopera tion in photography by Masaru Miyamoto of the Office of University Relations and Develop ment is also acknowledged. , ZIPPERS GERTRUDE P. HARRELL Extension Specialist in Clothing Zippers are being used in a large majority of our garments today. Various types of zip pers are on the market and one needs to select the kind that is most suitable for the garment. The coil zipper is thinner and is good to use in your synthetic garments and especially with the wash and wears, because hot iron will not come in contact with the zipper. If you are making a garment that is going to be ironed or pressed with a hot iron, it would be preferable to select a metal zipper or a coil zipper with tape backing. In selecting the length of the zipper, check your pattern, since most will give you the desired length; but you must consider if you will need just a little longer zipper in the back of a garment if you plan to step into and out of it. Some times a 22-inch zipper is not quite long enough and yet a 24 -inch zipper is too long. Put in a 24-inch zipper and Simply let the extra 1 inch of the zipper remain unnoticed and unstitched from the outside.

Expert Sewing and Ironing Techniques and Jacket Appearance
Expert sewing and ironing techniques and jacket appearance KyoungOk Kim Division of Kansei and Fashion Engineering, Institute for Fiber Engineering (IFES), Interdisciplinary Cluster for Cutting Edge Research (ICCER), Shinshu University, Ueda, Nagano, Japan [email protected] Masayuki Takatera Division of Kansei and Fashion Engineering, Institute for Fiber Engineering (IFES), Interdisciplinary Cluster for Cutting Edge Research (ICCER), Shinshu University, Ueda, Nagano, Japan [email protected] Tsuyoshi Otani Faculty of Textile Science and Technology, Shinshu University, Japan Abstract Purpose: Cloth can form a curved surface without wrinkling through deformation in shear and tension. Deformation is achieved in clothes production by ironing. We clarify how a skilled worker deforms cloth to produce curved surfaces. Design/methodology/approach: We investigated advanced techniques of sewing and ironing used to produce three-dimensional jackets and compared jackets made by experts with and without the techniques using the same jacket patterns. We interviewed the experts to clarify the aim of each process. Findings: Advanced techniques were mainly used on the sleeve, shoulder, armhole, pocket flap and collar. The use of advanced three-dimensional techniques affected the silhouette of the jacket and both parts and the overall shape of the jacket. The shape of the jacket became smoother and more curved and thus better fitted a dress form. The effects of the application of advanced techniques on each jacket part became clear, with all parts mutually affecting the silhouette of the jacket. The experts imagined the form that the designer aimed for in the pattern and accounted for it. In other words, the construction was at the discretion of the experts.
