Commercial paper pattern
The standardised paper pattern is pre-pared using
standard body measurements. This will suit a group of people with the specific
chest measurements. This method is followed in training and tailor-ing schools
(Figure 10.1).
Individual paper patterns are prepared using
measurements of a particular per-son. It is done at home and some tailor shops.
It is used to produce customized dresses (Figure 10.2).
Block paper patterns are prepared with thick
cardboards of the standardized body measurements. These patterns are mostly
used in the garment industry to cut bulk amount of garment in less time. These
patterns are stored for further use also (Figure 10.3).
Graded paper patterns are prepared of five
consecutive sizes (Example : 100, 110, 120, 130, 140 cm measurements) in one
single pattern. The required size is traced and cut from this pattern sheet and
used. These paper patterns help one to increase or decrease a paper pat-tern.
These patterns are very useful for designers (Figure 10.4).
Commercial paper pattern are the ready-made
patterns, available in shops for all body measurements. These come with
instruction manuals and step by step guidelines about selection of fabric,
preparation of fabric, marking, cutting and steps for sewing. Butter paper or
tracing papers are used for the preparation of commercial paper patterns.
Garment variation is also seen in some com-mercial patterns. The patterns are
placed in envelopes with pictures of the garments on models and fabric
combination in which the garment will look good (Figure 10.5).
