Pattern making, patternmaking, pattern cutting or flat patterning, are all words that describe the process of creating a two-dimensional diagram or template of a garment, drafted on a flat surface from either body measurements or transferred from a draped muslin.
The starting point of a pattern is a sloper. Slopers are basic patterns that are drafted containing a certain amount of wearing ease for the wearers comfort and are created without seam allowances. Slopers are used as the foundation or template for creating design variations that are subsequently cut and sewn in fabric.
In this book you will start by learning how to create a sloper for a basic sleeve before moving on to collars, bodices, skirts, and trousers. Each lesson in the book is illustrated in meticulous detail in a series of step-by-step photographs accompanied by charts, diagrams, and photos from the catwalk.
The University of Fashion Series covers core subjects that any fashion design student needs for their degree and includes step-by-step photographs that offer a precise visual guide that is second to none.
The lead author of the series is Francesca Sterlacci, Founder and CEO ofUoF,the first and largestonlinefashion designvideo libraryin the world,with hundreds of lessons in key design disciplines. She isalso on the faculty of the Academy of Art University in San Francisco.
