PATTERN ALTERATION ON FITTINGS AND STYLE

Disguising Figure Faults and Enhancing the Figure

To disguise figure faults and enhance your figure, here are some simple tips:

1. Disguising Figure Faults:

   - Vertical Lines: Choose clothes with vertical lines to elongate the body and create a slimming effect.

   - Dark Colors: Dark colors like black, navy, or dark brown can make areas appear smaller, helping to conceal bulges or bumps.

   - Proper Fit: Ensure your clothes fit well but aren't too tight. Avoid clothes that are too loose, as they can add bulk.

   - Empire Waist: Dresses or tops with an empire waistline can hide a larger midsection by drawing attention to the bust and creating a flowing silhouette below.

   - A-Line Silhouette: Skirts and dresses with an A-line silhouette can camouflage wider hips or thighs by gently flaring out from the waist.

2. Enhancing the Figure:

   - Highlight Assets: Draw attention to your best features. If you have a small waist, cinch it with a belt. If you have shapely legs, opt for skirts or dresses that show them off.

   - Color Blocking: Use color blocking strategically to emphasize certain areas of your body. For example, a darker color on the bottom can slim down hips and thighs, while a brighter color on top can draw attention upwards.

   - Structured Pieces: Choose structured pieces like blazers or tailored dresses that define your silhouette and create a more polished look.

   - V-Necklines: V-necklines elongate the neck and create the illusion of a longer, leaner upper body.

   - Shapewear: Consider using shapewear to smooth out any lumps or bumps and create a more streamlined silhouette under your clothes.

Enlarging or Reducing Pattern Sizes Proportionately

1. Proportional Grading: Adjust the pattern to different sizes while keeping the proportions consistent. This involves increasing or decreasing the overall dimensions evenly.
2. Slash and Spread:

   - Enlarging: Cut the pattern into sections, spread them apart to add width or length, and fill the gaps with additional paper.

   - Reducing: Overlap sections of the pattern to reduce size, ensuring to maintain symmetry and proportional changes.

3. Pivot and Slide:

   - Pivoting: Rotate the pattern piece around a fixed point to expand or contract the size.

   - Sliding: Move sections of the pattern outward to increase size or inward to decrease size without cutting.

EVALUATION: 1.  Explain how you can enlarge a pattern size.

2. How can you enhance a figure?
