Pattern of a simple cut dress: description, recommendations and models

With the advent of warm summer dusk so want to please yourself with new things! And for this it is absolutely not necessary to run into an expensive boutique for a trend dress. Today, the fashion includes products with the most simple cut with the use of natural fabrics. And this means that sewing a new fashionable outfit will not be difficult even for those who are just learning the basics of cutting and sewing. On how to build a pattern dresses a simple cut, and will be discussed in this article.

Selection of material and accessories

Of course, the appearance of any product directly depends on the fabric chosen for work. The simplest pattern of a straight dress is ideal for sewing products from cambric, staple, silk and even cotton knitwear, such as coulir and interlock.

For decorative fabrics that do not stretch, additional accessories will be required: buttons or zippers. But for knitwear, these elements can only be used as an element of decor.

Calculation of the required amount of tissue

What kind of cut material is needed for a dress? This question becomes before every master, and inexperienced seamstress often leads to a dead end. However, there is nothing complicated in calculating the required amount of cloth. First of all, you need to determine the length of the product, measure the circumference of the chest, hips and waist and learn the width of the fabric. For example, for a non-standard figure with wide hips, the girth of which is 110 cm, a pattern of a simple cut of 50 size will be placed on the canvas. This means that the product will need one length of a liner with a width of 1.4-1.5 meters or 2 lengths of 80 cm wide. Here, too, one should not forget about the allowances for processing the bottom of the product and possible obtachkov.

Removing measurements

In order for the product to perfectly fit on the figure, you need to correctly take measurements. To create a pattern, the following values are required:

• Neck, chest, waist, hips;
• Shoulder width;
• Height and grout solution;
• Length of transmission and back to waist;
• Width of back.

Building a Pattern

Immediately it should be said that the construction of the dress does not produce immediately on the canvas. First make a template, which is then transferred to the fabric. For such a workpiece, you can take glued sheets of paper or ordinary construction film. The latter option is more practical if you plan to use the template multiple times. The dress pattern of a simple cut is built in a rectangle. In the drawing, the transmission half and the back half of the product are drawn by successively transferring the measures.

The first stage of construction: a set of basic mesh. It includes all the main lines: the border of the shoulder seams, the line of the chest, the waist and hips, the border of the bottom of the product, and the vertical length. Initially, the pattern of a simple cut dress should look like a rectangle with horizontal divisions. Then the drawing is detailed. In the upper corners, the halves of the neck for the back are drawn and passed. On the back, the extreme points are overestimated by 0.5 cm. Further from these points, at an angle of 15 degrees, the shoulder lines are drawn.

After moving to the breast line and there denote half of the width of the back and raise the vertical to the upper border. Next, the armhole zone is determined: the half-mantle of the chest is divided by 4 and 2 cm is added. From the middle of the transfer lay half of the solution of the darts of the chest and lift the vertical. At the intersection with the shoulder seam, put a point and to the edge of the shoulder lay 2-3 cm for tucking on the chest. The shoulder line is extended to a similar length, and the dart is closed with an auxiliary line to the starting point on the border of the breast. Then they paint an armhole. The pattern of a simple cut dress can be without a thawed dart, which means that the designation of the width of the hips will be the final stage of construction.

So, on the line of the thighs from the vertical boundaries of the rectangle, put down ¼ measure of the hip circumference and put the dots. After a side seam is drawn from the middle of the armhole zone across the border of the hips and to the hem bottom.

Modeling

To make the product beautifully sit on the figure, it is possible to decorate the tapped darts. Another option is to cut it down and make a cut from the back or, on the contrary, to flap it, giving it the shape of a trapezoid. This option is an ideal pattern of dresses for beginners. Simple and easy to build, they sit very harmoniously on the figure. In addition, such dresses can be decorated with fashionable flounces or basques at the waist. You can also add a relief product by cutting the cut parts into elements. Also interesting is the option with color combination. For example, on a beige dress, the black inserts on the sides will look original. Visually, this move will pull out the silhouette, giving it elegance and harmony.

Open the canvas

Important points that should be taken into consideration when cutting out details from the fabric are as follows:

• The direction of drawing on the canvas, so that the dress does not turn upside down flowers;
• "Flowability" of the fabric, which requires wider allowances for seams;
• Shrinkage of the cloth during washing (it is recommended to pre-strip the cotton linen so that the product does not become small).

Assembling the product

When all the elements are cut, it remains only to assemble the dress. First of all, close the breast darts. Next, shoulder seams and handle the neck and armholes. Next is the turn of the side seams and the hem of the product. All seams must be treated with an overlock or zigzag. The neck can be decorated with an inwardly skewed beika or a full-fledged spine that duplicates the back parts and passes along the throat and armholes sections about 5-7 cm along the contour.

Quite often a light cut is used for making elegant dresses . And a lot of fashion magazines confirm this. For example, the well-known edition, where a simple pattern is often used, is Burda. Dress is a long simple cut of chic silk with a thin leather belt or a product made of guipure with a delicate soft lining - these are the best products based on simple lines of easy construction. Therefore, it's time to tune in to work and create your own masterpiece with your own hands. And all the charm will be that exactly no one will meet in the same dress. After all, individuality is one of the most important virtues of every self-respecting fashionista.
