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!
