FASHION SCHOOL WITH NICK.....How to Drape a Dartless Bodice!

September 19, 2017 0 Comments





Dartless Sequins: Nick Verreos shows How to Drape a Dartless Bodice--"Fashion School With Nick Verreos" YouTube Channel



This is one of my FAVORITE DRAPING TIPS that I learned from my very, very...VERY AMAZING seamstresses. They have taught me a lot through the years and I wanted to share this with my "Fashion School With Nick Verreos" YouTube Channel followers and viewers. For many, many years I would drape silk chiffon (or tulle-backed) sequined bodices for my NIKOLAKI gowns using darts--because I din't know of any other choices...

It wasn't until one of my seamstresses--while sewing one of my gowns--stopped me and said "NICK! Why are you putting a dart and ruining the sequins??" I told her "well, isn't the fabric a woven fabric so...it must have a dart...". NO!!...

My seamstress schooled me; she taught me how to drape a sequined chiffon fabric for a bodice WITHOUT including a dart that would ruin the sequined fabrication. After that, it was DONE & DONE. And now, I'm passing this draping couture tip on to you!

Draped Slash & Spread: Nick Verreos "How to Drape Without a Dress Form Without a Dress Form: Slash & Spread" Video--Fashion School With Nick Verreos YouTube Channel



In my NEWEST "Fashion School With Nick Verreos" YouTube Video--I'm very excited to show How to Drape a Side Gathered Dress...WITHOUT a Dress Form. While I was in fashion school, I was taught this Slash & Spread Method of pattern-making but shown only examples using basic designs and never a dress like this!

From Muslin Drape to Gown: Nick Verreos "How To Drape a One Shoulder Pleated Bodice" Video, "Fashion School With Nick Verreos" YouTube Channel



In my one of my latest (and already quite popular!) "Fashion School With Nick Verreos" YouTube video, I show you guys a tutorial on How to Drape a One-shoulder Pleated Bodice using one of my NIKOLAKI gowns as an example!

The gown I am using is a one shoulder design in a raspberry colored silk satin organza (photo above). I thought it would be fun to show an "Advanced Draping" lesson and give a tutorial on how to drape the top section of the gown:
