In this session, I went through correcting and truing the draped pieces for the classic shirt. I laid the front, back and yoke pieces flat to make adjustments before transferring to the paper pattern.
Lesson Steps:
- Lay out the draped front, back and yoke pieces flat
- Mark to extend shoulders out 1 inch on each side
- Drop armholes down 3cm from original line
- Blend armhole curves from dropped points
- Add 2cm ease out from center front
- Shape side seams with a slight curved shape
- Measure yoke lengths to determine gather/pleat amounts
- Adjust back for box pleat and optional extra pleat
