corset Toile

I drew up a bespoke block for my model Kaiyu and then adapted it to create a corset. I got to work sewing the pieces together and adding in cups etc. When I had my first fitting with Kaiyu I found that the corset sat very big on my model. This meant that there were a lot of adjustments. I made the changes and then edited the pattern pieces. Whilst doing another fitting with Kaiyu, and taking pictures to check the fit, I noticed that the under-cups line did not sit in the right place (once I looked back on photos) therefore I would have to check the adjustments again. This stressed the importance of fittings and to make sure that the garment is sitting exactly in the right place before any adjustments are made.
