Using Draping techniques to create new fashion design ideas. Draping is used to develop basic Bodice, Basic Skirt, Basic Dress, a Circle Skirt, etc.
You will learn how to manipulate muslin, create Darts, how to mark muslin, which will then be used to draft a pattern.
Even though this is primarily a basic course, I will also shows you some more advanced techniques such as draping a circle skirt and a basic dress. The transferring of muslin to dotted paper is also demoed.
