Students will learn how to make draft the frame and band of an underwire bra pattern, the purpose of an underwire, types of underwire, sister sizing, construction techniques and more. Please note that this workshop will only cover drafting and construction, not fit.
Bra Fitting 101
Learn how to measure yourself, what is a good and bad fit, how to properly put on a bra, and more, but how to adjust your pattern to correct fit issues. This Bra Fitting 101 is centered on sewing, not RTW, but you can definitely apply the course to your RTW bra fitting.

In this virtual class, I will demonstrate how to draft a pattern from measurements, how to measure yourself in order to complete the draft, how to account for stretch and non stretch fabrics, how to use your sloper for pattern manipulation for different styles. I’ll also be answering modification you can make to prevent the wedgie.
