Patternmaking
for Fashion Design (3rd Edition)
by Helen Joseph Armstrong
This quintessential guide to patternmaking offers comprehensive coverage,
clear illustrations and easy-to-follow instructions, providing users with
all the relevant information necessary to create design patterns with accuracy
regardless of their complexity. Covers the three steps in the development
of design patterns—dart manipulation, added fullness, and contouring—with
a central theme that all designs are based on one, or more of these three
major patternmaking and design principles. Includes a fashion sketch for
each project with an analysis of the design, and focuses on pattern plot
and manipulation for developing the patterns. Illustrates several methods
for knock-offs, and dedicates new sections on fitting corrections for the
basic pattern set and the four pant foundation; menswear; patternmaking
for bias-cut garments; revised drafting instructions and standard measurement
charts; how to modify the bodice to fit the different sizes of bust cups;
constructed support for strapless designs, and more. Presents additional
and more challenging design projects for the advanced reader. For dressmakers,
home sewers, manufacturing companies, and professionals in fashion design
and fashion merchandising. The Publisher
