    Girl, your method of draping is so much easier than what I tried before!
    THANK YOU SO MUCH ♥

    "no stretching! smooth the fabric. let the fabric talk to you" says nick verreos. your technique is a bit different. but it works.
    while you were working i thought that the garment would be tight. but it fits well. thanks for the video.
    if you can, please make a video about draping on a real person. how would one go about pinning?
    I and many others would greatly appreciate it.

    You inspired me to make my prom dress this year and I am so happy I did because I created something that was 100% me. I want to create something like this for next year but I don't have a dress form. Do you, or any others, think it is necessary for me to get a dress form if I plan on making a fit and flare/somewhat mermaid dress as you have here. I'm not experienced really at all when it comes to draping and I even found myself getting confused on creating a princess seam for the bodice of my dress, but I was able to in the end. In conclusion, should I invest in a dress form and take a draping class? I don't want to spend an incredible amount however. Thank you to all who took the time to read this and have a great day!!!

  • @korkeshaarrington7223
    @korkeshaarrington7223 Před 8 lety +3

    If I had you as my teacher for my draping course in FIT I would have excelled it along with pattern making. Thank you so much Daniela Tabois. You've inspired me "TO GET MY DRAPE ON"!!! To get started draping my design ideas. I'm a self-taught flat pattern maker but, watching you gives me the confidence that I will do it too. If I can make a request, could you drape another mermaid silhouette dress or evening that have an (ARMHOLE PRINCESS LINE) bodice or dress with a (CIRCULAR FLARED FLOUNCE) lower skirt. Example ideas for a flounce skirt STYLE LINE can be a "V Point"..."inverted V Point...or "Zig-Zag" to make it interesting. Please let me know what you think of my request.

  • @SuperModerngranny
    @SuperModerngranny Před 7 lety +1

    I like what I see, but I thought draping garments need grainlines as guidelines, otherwise the garment might not hang well and/or pull out of shape? Also, I thought you need to drape all the panels together (at the same time) following grainlines so that notches can be marked for matching especially so for very close fitting garments to void puckers and also for easing and shaping during pressing and sewing, no?

  • @erin_m_campbell4528
    @erin_m_campbell4528 Před 8 lety

    do a deep v-neck and the dress in the black materiel. can you also do sleeves because i have no idea how to drape/pattern draft sleeves. if you end up doing sleeves, make them a black lace so you have a contrast between the solid black dress on the body and see through lace sleeves. it would look super edgy and professional
