Peg Skirt, with Pleats
Cowl Skirt on Side Seam
Adjusting and modifying pattern measurements
Spaghetti straps
Bias Binding
Bias Piping
Bias Grainlines
"Truing" pleats
Inspirational advice and direction
In this course you will learn about Bias. Bias grainline. Cutting garments on the Bias. Properties of Bias-cut dresses. You will discover Designer Madeleine Vionnet. You will learn about Bias tape and Bias piping and how to use it. Spaghetti straps are also cut on the bias. And what is a: Loop turner. And you will learn how to design a Bias Top.
You will also learn about: Asymmetrical Designs. What is a asymmetrical design? You will watch me as I demo and drape a One Shoulder Dress. You will learn how to drape using Center Front on Bias. You will learn the meaning of R.S.U. which stand for Right-Side-Up. referring to how to lay a pattern unto a specific type of fabric to make sure that it is cut correctly.
You will learn, by watching me demo, how to make a: Peg Skirt with Pleats - a 2-Part Demo that will demonstrate firstly what Peg Skirt is, and secondly how to add pleats. First, I will be using the draping process and Drape a Peg Skirt, then I will show you, using Pattern Making (Pattern Drafting), how create one using Patten Drafting.
You will learn the “Truing” process, "truing" the muslin drape accurately in order to achieve accurate patterns, the transferring of the information from the muslin drape unto pattern paper.
You will learn (I will demo) how to Drape a Skirt with a Cowl on the side seam, and side seam on the bias — a unique and dramatic design. Most skirt do not have a Side Seam, and to have a Cowl Drape on a Side Seam in not only unusual but also dramatic. Draping a Cowl on a side seam you would have to have the grain line (of the side seam) on the Bias.
We will cover adjusting and modifying a pattern to fit specific measurements, whether you’re making garments for yourself or designing something for a specific customer. A get a lot of students asking me how to change the measurements of a pattern and thus altering the fit of the garment. Even though there is a very specific skill/technique called Grading to achieve that, I will show you and give you an overall concept on how to make a pattern/garment larger or smaller.
You should have some previous knowledge of Pattern Drafting and/or Draping before enrolling in this Course. Please review my previous Courses so that you can understand and absorb the material in a supportive and empowering way. I do have Courses in pattern Making (Part 1 through 4) that would help you understand the content of this course if you feel that it's a bit too advanced for you.
You should have the proper TOOLS necessary to draft patterns and draping, such as scissors, pins, measuring tape and ruler(s), muslin or similar fabric, pencils, pattern paper would be helpful, tape, etc.
Having a Dress Form would be very helpful, as the draping part of this Course will be demoed on a Dress Form (but if you only want to learn the theory behind these designs and these techniques, that’s fine too, that’s up to you). A Dress Form is very useful especially when you want to see what a new design looks like being worn. Also, a dress form would be essential if you want to use the draping process as a creative tool and vehicle to create new designs and bring new ideas to fruition.
I’m very excited to share this Course with you as it is the first one that combines Pattern Making AND Draping. My other courses focus on either draping or pattern making, this fashion design course combines both skills and techniques. Learning to use, and work with, Bias, is such a new way to use fabric and to achieve a certain "look" and silhouette that would normally b very difficult to achieve.
