Made in America


My pattern with curved lines!


Deconstructed white shirt

My pattern's main purpose is to hide the side dart by drawing curves through the apex point. Then I cut out my pattern in muslin and pinned it together. It's like the technique Shingo Sato uses to create his garments. Underneath is a video demonstrating his incredible skills!

With the white shirt I played around with form and shape. I took off the sleeves and collar and draped it on the dress form (which I have named Karlie). Do you like the forms I created so far? I think I'm going to buy another shirt and play around with volume next time.
