How to make a corset pattern with tape
www.velvetdreamsfashion.de
First attach a top with a corset-like pattern on the dress form
Tape the single panels
this may look like this
You can see the lines of the single pieces
it's important to mark the seem-lines
if you are using an elastic top, there won't be any seems at the back
you should mark the middle center und work from the center to the outer parts and model
pieces by yourself
like this
you should think a little bit of the anatomy of your back and use that as an orientation
for your pattern pieces
there will be a gap after modeling two pattern pieces, the lines should be as round as possible
model the gap with tape as shown
now you need some lines to work with later
mark all your alterations on the top and bottom
mark the breast-line, the waist-line and your hip line (or the bottom seam line in this
case)
now you can peel of the pattern pieces, you need to tape twice every section before zu
it should look (a little bit) like this
i did an alteration here, i made a cut at piece two and split it and added it to pieces
This is how the corrected pattern looked like i altered it a little bit for nice seams
