Drafting a Bodice Sloper and Fitting

This class will meet two consecutive Saturdays, July 8 (10:30-2:30) and July 15 (1:30-4:00). On the first Saturday, students will take measurements of themselves and then draft a basic bodice sloper based on their own measurements. A sloper is a pattern that does not have style ease or seam allowance. These are added later based on a person’s style and fit preference, which will be discussed. Students will draft the front and back of a basic bodice using their own measurements. Students will need to make a toile/muslin of the sloper pattern and be ready for the fitting and adjustments the following Saturday, July 15th. Detailed instructions will be sent upon registration.
