What fabric is better to sew a dress with a smell and relief

The approximate consumption of fabric for a trapeze dress with a width of 140 cm, depending on the size, will be from 170 to 300 cm. Due to such a big difference in fabric consumption, it is recommended to pre-lay out the finished patterns in your size before buying fabric and calculate the consumption more accurately.

Most fabrics of the dress assortment are suitable for sewing this A-line dress. But the most suitable can be considered thin dress wool, crepe or thin tight knitwear of low stretch.

A little less suitable can be considered dress jeans, linen, jersey.

Features of cutting dresses with wrap and relief

First, let's look at some of the most common questions related to such patterns.

Why is there a middle seam in this wrap dress?

To improve the fit and "care" from the shared direction along the midline of the back. Thanks to this, the bottom will not be deformed in the sock.

Which barrel to choose - "narrow" or "wide"?

Measure the volume of the pattern with a narrow and wide barrel, compare with the finished product of the volume you need.

Why on the sleeve in the pattern for full hands is there a tuck along the collar?

To reduce the fit, while maintaining the width of the sleeve along the collar.

Which collar to choose?

Choose a collar on the fitting, taking into account the complexion and commensurability of the parts of the product. Narrow collars are suitable for small sizes, and wider collars for large ones.

How to cut this wrap dress with your own hands according to the finished pattern

Do-it-yourself sewing at home is very different from sewing clothes in a factory. So, for example, with individual tailoring, the fabric is folded in half, and with mass tailoring, it is cut in a turn, laying the fabric in several layers.

By cutting out this model, we will approach mass production technology - we will cut out some of the details on the fabric in a turn (see pictures 2 и 3).

It's about the details of the shelf. As you can see, the middle part of the shelf is asymmetrical, as is the bottom. The lower part of the shelf is cut out according to the same pattern from the bottom to the waist.

If you do not have enough sewing experience, it is better to make a separate paper pattern for the lower part of the shelf (from the waist to the bottom).

The fabric is spread in a turn and the back and details of the shelf are laid out on it, taking into account the shared direction (picture 2). This is for small sizes.

Cutting large sizes is shown in 3 drawing and on the turn of the fabric only the details of the shelf are placed.

Lobar backs - along the midline (not the middle seam, but the midline), the lobar shelves are also along the midline - along the half-skid.

When unpaired shelves are cut out, the rest of the fabric can be folded in half and the rest of the patterns can be laid out on it in accordance with the shared direction.

The lobar thread of the upper collar is parallel to the midline, the lower collar is cut along the oblique thread. In other words, for the lower collar, it is important that not a single cut of the collar coincides with the share thread of the cut.

The same goes for the cuff. The upper one is laid out perpendicular to the lobar, and the lower one is cut out along the oblique thread.

Another important point in cutting the collar and cuffs: they are cut out after the shoulder and middle seams are processed and, accordingly, when the sleeve is ready. Thus, the length of the collar depends only on the length of the neck, and the length of the cuff only on the length of the bottom of the sleeve and its final width.

The sacking is desirable along the pocket entry line so that the pocket does not stretch in the sock.

Seam allowances - regular - 1 - 1,2 cm each. The exception is allowances for curved sections. No seam allowances are added along the neckline, sprout (back neckline), sleeve hem, armhole and collar stitching cut.

How to sew a dress with a smell and relief with your own hands step by step

Here there are also differences from the factory sewing sequence, since fittings are excluded at the factory, and there is no correction of the armhole and neck according to the figure and desire of the customer.

1. As always, we start sewing by thinking about processing. This model has different options.
2. First, the neck can be processed with a regular facing, the bottom of the sleeve in a hem, and the collar and cuffs can be removable.
3. The second option, the collar is sewn into the neck, and the stitching seam is simply overcast or covered with an oblique trim.
4. Of course, all sections can be processed with an oblique trim - edging, and not overcasting on an overlock.
5. When choosing a method for processing open sections, keep in mind that the rigidity of the edged sections increases.
6. A zipper in the middle seam of the back is definitely needed. We start sewing the dress by processing the middle seam - partially sweeping it under the zipper, overcasting the cuts and ironing the allowances. Stitch, overcast and iron the shoulder seams.
7. We fasten the zipper and sweep the dress for fitting, slightly ironing the seams. For basting, you can use a special basting stitch, which is found in modern household sewing machines. Sweep the sleeve too.
8. If a shoulder pad is planned in the dress, then the fitting should also be carried out with a shoulder pad - we pin it to the shoulder seam with a tailor's pin.
9. On the fitting, we specify the position of the tuck relative to the centers of the bulge of the chest - it is possible that the tuck will have to be rotated.
10. In addition, we specify the outlines and size of the neck and armholes. If necessary or desired, the neckline and armholes can be changed.
11. How to cut an armhole
12. After trimming the armhole, if any, we put on the sleeve, determining three points of docking with the armhole and mark them with chalk on the dress and on the sleeve.
13. After trying on, we grind and iron the tucks, stitch the burlap of the pockets, measuring the same distances on the shelf and barrel from the waistline. We overcast the seam and iron it.
14. We grind, weave and iron the relief-pocket, leaving the smell not fixed.
15. We grind the zipper, grind, overcast and iron the side seams.
16. We overcast the bottom and process it into a hem with an open cut, bending once by 1 - 1,2 cm.

18. And a video master class on sewing how to process the bottom of the dress in different ways
19. Next, we sweep the sleeve, combining the three points indicated on the fitting, stitch it in and overcast the armhole.
20. We cut out the collar and cuffs, based on the length of the neck and the length of the bottom of the sleeve. If the collar is removable, then it is desirable to make the upper collar without a middle seam (figures 2 и 3). If the collar is sewn into the neck, then the collar will consist of two halves.
21. We grind the collar and cuffs, iron and, if necessary, lay the finishing line.
22. You can also sew feathers, as in the photo. Feathers are sewn only to the upper collar and cuff, that is, not through the details. After sewing on the feathers, the collar and cuffs cannot be ironed and washed, therefore, they must be removable. In this case, the neck is processed by turning, the sleeve is hem with an open cut, as mentioned above.
23. In other cases, the collar is sewn into the neck. The stitching section is stretched with an iron (not a stitching seam, but only a cut to the seam), overcast and secured with a machine or hand stitch.
24. It is also possible to cover the seam with a bias tape, in which case it is not necessary to overcast the sections and they can be cut with scissors so that the seam lies better.
25. The final stage is the fixing of the left shelf. We fasten only near the waist to the seam allowance of the relief.
26. The bartack can be done by machine or by hand.
