Pattern making is not just science or mathematics but it is creativity as well. The visual appeal of a garment depends on the choice of garment silhouette, drape, cut and structure. Factors like fabric, colors, prints, trims and finishes matter a lot while developing a design. A sheer fabric creates a flat effect in a gathered skirt but yet it has a soft, feminine and flowy appearance. A denim or gaberdine gives a stiff, casual and tough-to-tear kind of a look to a frock. Satins, velvets, organza’s and lace fabrics give a dressy look to a frock. On must give a thought to features like pleats, gathers, flare, canvasing etc. while choosing a fabric or a fabric design or texture.
