This blog is aimed, specifically, at teaching students of fashion design how to make close-fit stretch-wear patterns. While the public can certainly learn a lot from reading the blog, they may find they need the added guidance of an "in class" fashion teacher ... I'm not going to provide this level of instruction. Everything you need to design women's swim or dancewear patterns is already here. By combining the various elements of each lesson a design student should be able to create any number of designs. I will not be adding new patterns unless it becomes necessary for one of my classes. If you'd like to keep in touch with like minded creative people then feel free to add me as a friend on facebook ... I love to see what others are doing ... just type Pattern School as the message and I'll know to add you.
My experiment in alternative fashion can be seen at Itty Bitty Evil Kitty ... please drop by and add your opinions and help shape the experiment. |

If you’ve been following my Demographics postings you’ll know I’ve been searching for linear (and non-linear) trends in sizing so as to see if there really is a trend of any kind that can be used to improve the way we not only make patterns, but also in how we interpret the sizing interval . . . → Read More: Demographics Part II First published January 20th, 2010 (Last updated: January 20th, 2010) Everyone knows I love demographics. Understanding sizing and shape trends and anomalies is the key to creating a succesful ready-to-wear range that actually sells. All too often design houses use hand me down standard size tables with no real appreciation of their target audience. I often use examples like a size 10 teenager being a completely . . . → Read More: Demographics: Size & Shape First published December 17th, 2009 (Last updated: December 17th, 2009)
