The Fitting
Once the basic block mock-up is sewn, it is time for a fitting. At this stage in the design process a mock-up must be fitted to the client's body. Design lines are drawn on the garment. Such things as pocket placement, hemline, sleeve style, neckline style, and dart placement are marked on the muslin garment. At this point all changes to the basic block are incorportated into the design and a proto-type of the final garmet is made using a similar fabric and colour. The client sees how the finished garment will look. |
