Pattern cutting on the stand






I am forever wondering how garments are constructed and learned how to pattern cut during my degree course. I now teach my students how to draft patterns and really enjoy helping them develop new and innovative products.

I have been studying my favourite period in dress- the 1940s and 1950s. I am working on recreating a 1951 Dior cocktail dress and have begun draping on the stand (see pictures).
