At the request of visitors to our site, we offer another direction in modeling - this off-the-shoulder dress or blouse in which the front and back are connected by straps.

Modeling is, first of all, the embodiment of your ideas. This is a boundless ocean of opportunities for creativity in creating clothes.

And here it is important to understand the fundamental principles and not bind yourself to literally following the instructions. What I mean?

If you are going to create something by any method, read it, understand the details, so that you have an idea of ​​​​the process. Take, for example, this guide. See what the K point means? This is the depth of the cutout in the center of the front. Points 3 and 6; is the depth of the armhole. Compare these values ​​with what you want to have as a result of the simulation. You can change them to either side, i.e. decrease or increase. The same can be said about the width of the entire product in the chest and waist. This is just an example that shows you one of the directions in modeling this kind of blouses or dresses.

If you have not yet built a base pattern for yourself, use it and do it.

We take a drawing of our base pattern and copy the shelf and back onto a blank sheet of paper

To build, we need a separate back and shelf.

On the pattern-based backrest, along the side cut down from point P, measure 4 cm and set point 1. From point 1 we draw horizontal line to the intersection with the middle line of the back and set point 2. This will be the upper cut of the back.

Departing from the side cut of the base pattern by 1 cm to the left, we draw a new line of the side cut parallel to it.

We close the drawer. The upper and lower sections are drawn with a smooth line.

On the pattern of the base of the front, we close the chest tuck, transfer it to the tuck at the waist. To do this, we cut the line G74 (points G7 and 4 indicate the tops of the bust and waist darts).

The top of the new tuck (point E) will now be on the bisector of the angle of the open tuck, approximately 4 cm from point G7. To build, you can use a compass.

We measure 4 cm along the side cut line down from point P and set point 5. Stepping back from the side cut by 1 cm, we draw a new line parallel to the previous side cut line. From point 5 we draw a perpendicular to the intersection with the new side cut line and set point 6.

Now we draw the upper section of the front of the bodice. On the line of the middle of the front down from point B4, set aside 13-15 cm, we get point K. From point G7 up along the line of the closed tuck, set aside 10 cm, we get point K1. Connecting points K, K1 and point 6, we draw the line of the upper cut of the front.

Everything ingenious is simple! It is this motto that once again proves our beige dress with straps. It is very easy to make a pattern for this dress, as you will see when you start building a dress pattern.

So what's the secret behind this adorable spaghetti strap dress? It's all about the fabric! Openwork beige fabric with pronounced stripes of patterns is the soloist in this model.

IMPORTANT! The lace that you will use for sewing a dress with straps must be elastic, since there are no darts on the dress.

It may be necessary to transfer the chest darts, this can be determined by trying on.

Ekaterina Bizyaeva 27.03.2019 00:46:22

Good afternoon. I downloaded the pattern, but I can't print it. Test square No. 2 with a real print size comes out 10x10, and then the pattern itself does not fit.

Administrator: Hello, when printing, check the "orientation" setting. This setting should be “self-portrait / album”, because of the incorrectly set orientation, the margins of the sheet may move out.

Try another scale setting other than " real size", and "custom scale". Set it to the desired number of percentages with which the test square will be 10 by 10 cm. Usually this is 100%, but your printer settings may differ.

With the same settings, with which the test square is printed exactly 10 by 10 cm, with a letter and a number in the upper left corner and with margins on all 4 sides, you need to print a pattern. Then the pattern will be right size, with margins and numbering.

If you are printing from a browser, please note that printing from a browser may not be correct. It is better to print the pattern by first downloading it to your device.

Size 48 fits bust 95

Diana 05.03.2019 00:04:32

Good afternoon

I sew a sundress according to this pattern. I chose the size in accordance with my measurements (height 156, OG 74, OT 60, OB 86), that is, size 38, height 158-164.
After trying on the layout, it turned out that the sundress is very large and weighs on me the same way as on the mannequin in the video on sewing this model.
The length was below the knee and I reduced it by 10 cm.
The sundress turned out to be wide, so I pinned 1.5 cm from the sides. I lowered the armhole by the same amount.
And then the grooves. Since the front part was puffed up with a tail, I did the same manipulations as in the video: I made cuts to the center of the chest and parted them.
What happened can be seen in the attached photos. The breast recess became only 7mm.
Q: Do I need to leave a notch? Or does it turn out that with my proportions it is not needed at all?

Administrator: Hello, I consulted with the designer - it is better to leave the chest tuck.

Natalya 02/15/2019 02:33:12

Tell me, please, if the fabric is with a pattern, is it possible not to make cuts on the sides?

Administrator: Hello, yes you can!

Evgenia Rudenko 06.02.2019 20:03:35

Hello, tell me, what size is suitable for the parameters Og 101 From 74 Og 102?

Administrator: Hello, there is no need to write the same question under different models. The size of the product is selected according to the measurements of your body, and for different models shoulder products will be the same. Since it is selected according to the girth of the chest.
Here for belt products it may differ, as it is selected according to the girth of the hips.

For shoulder items (dresses, blouses, coats) your size is 50.
For waist products (skirts, trousers) Your size is 48

Evgeniya Rudenko 19.02.2019 10:27:50

Good afternoon Is it possible to use strips of duberlin instead of a glue edge, cut off, respectively, along the lobar and along the oblique?

Administrator: Hello, instead of an edge, you can use a dublerin cut along a shared line. But you need to pay attention to the thickness of the dublerin - the dublerin may be thinner than the finished edge.

The oblique edge has a threaded stitch to support the seam and also, of course, the thickness of the doubler plays a role. In the case of an oblique edge, it is better to use it than doublerin.

Elizabeth 05.02.2019 02:22:03

Please tell me, at 86-60-89, what size is better to take so that it doesn’t sit in a sticky?

Hello, usually all your patterns fit me perfectly. I generally have a very standard 44 size, even the seamstresses in the studio praised. But this sundress somehow ... dangles, or something. It creates the feeling that it is too big in the girth area above the chest. It should be?

Administrator: Hello, no it shouldn't. Check the bodice of the sundress with the patterns - have you stretched the top? The cuts are oblique and can easily be deformed.

And all figures still have features, so sometimes adjustments are required in some models.

Olga 08/09/2018 16:59:37

Good afternoon. Can you please tell me if leather, suede, artificial leather is suitable for this model? I would like a winter version of such a sundress. Thank you.

Hello!
Thank you so much for the pattern and tutorial!
The pattern did not suit me a little, I chose the correct pattern for my height (158-164), but the tucks are located as if for a higher height. Approximately 2 cm lower.

Administrator: Elena, good afternoon!
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you appreciated the pattern and the master class!
The location of the darts may depend on the individual characteristics of the figure, as well as on the length of the straps. Therefore, we always recommend sewing a layout before the main sewing, in order to take into account all the nuances of fitting the product specifically to your figure.

Maria 07/23/2018 11:13:10

Good afternoon. On OG 92 and OB 104, which size is better to choose?

Administrator: Maria, good afternoon!
We recommend that you buy a pattern in size 46, but when sewing the layout, add allowances for the hips so that, if necessary, release a few centimeters during the fitting. It will be easier to adjust the pattern on the hips than on the chest.

Balnur Kubasheva 17.07.2018 15:56:52

Hello. Here in the master classes you used an adhesive edge, but what if I did not find such adhesive edges in my city (with and without a thread in the middle). And you order, delivery is problematic. And I live in Kazakhstan in Aktau. In our stores only cobweb-braid. Adhesive, duplicates are in footage. How to be what can be replaced, tell me. Thank you for being.

Administrator: Good afternoon You can make a longitudinal edge yourself by simply cutting the doubler to the width you need.

Lyudmila 12.07.2018 17:20:26

Maria Goncharova 07/09/2018 16:18:56

Hello, I printed the pattern - a test square 10 by 10. But the allowances are strange - there are more side seams than in other places. Maybe something with the settings? More specifically, on the sides - 1 cm, on the neck and armholes - 0.7 cm And the edging along the edge of the page is 1.5 cm. It was just smaller in the previous pattern

Administrator: Good afternoon That's right, this model has such processing allowances

We advise you to choose size 38 and slightly widen the pattern in the hip area.

Straps for dresses and tops - do it yourself

visibility 37882 views

In this article I will tell you how to sew and properly sew straps to clothes. You will also learn how to make adjustable straps - ones that can be lengthened and shortened.

So, let's start with a simple regular strap ...

How to sew a strap.

Firstly, I’ll make a reservation right away that if it’s not important for you that the straps are exactly from the same fabric as the dress itself, then straps can be made very quickly from bias tape(sold in the fabric departments of stores or in the departments of sewing accessories).

The oblique inlay looks like a half-finished strap, that is, a flat strip of fabric with edges folded inward (Fig. 3 in the diagram below). So you just save time, you don’t have to cut a long strip, bend and iron its edges.

But if this option does not suit you, or you have not found a bias tape in the size you need, then we will try to make it ourselves. Here's how it's done

We take a strip of fabric of the required length. The width of the strip should be 4 times wider than the future strap (Fig. 1).

We bend the edges of the strip inward to the middle (Fig. 2, 3) so that the bend is kept smooth with an iron. So it turned out oblique inlay. This is what it looks like in the store. The same edging can be used to process the armholes and the neck of the dress.

Now, in order for the edging to become a strap, it is necessary to fold it in half again, edge to edge (Fig. 4) and stitch it (Fig. 5).

That's it - the strap is ready, you can sew it to the dress. We fasten one end of the strap in front, and the other in the back.

How to sew a strap on a dress.

First way. You can just sew on with stitches tightly. Hide the ends of the straps over the edge of the dress and sew on stronger - such a simple rough way.

The second way. It is possible to sew on beautiful decorative rings in the places of the future attachment of the straps to the dress and put the strap into them and fasten them. Here's what I mean:

Now on sale are many decorative rings and buckles studded with rhinestones. And a strap with such a ring will become more elegant.

First you need to sew a piece of the strap in the place we need (where the strap will be attached to the dress). And attach a ring to this piece (Fig. 1, 2, 3). And then we put the end of our long strap into the sewn ring, bend this end and sew it to the strap (Fig. 4, 5, 6).

And you can buy several rings, cut the strap into pieces and connect each ring with each other with a piece of strap (Fig. 7).

The third way - you can sew on a strap (when it is still in the edging stage) in such a way that the piping processes the neck and smoothly turns into a strap. Here's what I mean:

Process the armholes separately with an oblique trim (Fig. 2).

And then we take our oblique inlay of such a length that it is enough to process the neck and make 2 straps. We find the middle on this segment of the oblique inlay and apply this middle to the center of the neck.

And now leading a slanting inlay from the center of the neck, we begin to process it (the neck) with this oblique inlay first in left side- the inlay goes to the left along the neckline (processes it) reaches the left edge of the neckline and there it already turns into a strap (that is, the oblique inlay flaps are sewn together with the same line that we just scribbled the neckline). And the same is now on the right side.

That's it, the inlay processing the neck to the right and left of the neck smoothly turned into a strap - Fig. 3.

It is possible on the contrary - the neck was processed with a separate piece of inlay, and the inlay that was used to process the armhole smoothly passes to the strap. How do you feel more beautiful.

How to process the edges of armholes and necklines with a trim is shown and described in the diagram below:

The shoulder strap is adjustable.

If we want the strap to be shortened or lengthened according to our desire, we can make an adjustable strap, like in bras.

We need a buckle with a jumper (Fig. 1), a ring (Fig. 2) and a finished shoulder strap with a margin of length (Fig. 3).

The end of the strap must be pulled into the buckle so that it simply bends over the jumper and returns to the strap, to which it must be attached after that (Fig. 4, 5, 6).

Now, on the back, in the place you have planned, we attach a piece of the strap (Fig. 7), into which we thread the ring (Fig. 8, 9), fasten it well with several lines (Fig. 10).

Now we thread the end of the strap (the one without the buckle) into the ring, and we stretch it into the buckle (Fig. 11, 12). All the strap is ready - we attach this free end that came out of the buckle to the front of the dress. You can just sew it on, or you can also attach a ring in front and fasten our end of the strap on this ring.

Now in stores you can buy ready-made adjustable straps - however, their color is limited, and as a rule, they are all narrow. More often they are just black and white, there are transparent, and there are also studded with stars, with buckles in the form of butterflies or flowers.

Available for sale and a bunch beautiful ribbons, decorative buckles - and from all this variety you can come up with many interesting straps yourself, which will become an adornment of a simply tailored dress.

You just need to remember the sense of proportion. If your dress already has a decorative element (bow, intricate drapery, intricately sewn frills), then an additional decor in the form of jewelry on the straps will be superfluous.

That, perhaps, is all that I wanted to tell you about the straps. All questions, wishes and advice from you, dear readers, I will be glad to see in the comments to the article. You can also place photos of the products you have sewn there.

Good luck with your sewing!

Model 1.

If you are going to create something by any method, read it, understand the details, so that you have an idea of ​​​​the process. Take, for example, this guide. See what the K point means? This is the depth of the cutout in the center of the front. Points 3 and 6; is the depth of the armhole. Compare these values ​​with what you want to have as a result of the simulation. You can change them to either side, i.e. decrease or increase. The same can be said about the width of the entire product in the chest and waist. This is just an example that shows you one of the directions in modeling this kind of blouses or dresses.

If you haven't built a base pattern for yourself yet, use our step-by-step instructions and do it.
We take a drawing of our base pattern and copy the shelf and back onto a blank sheet of paper

See Fig. 1

To build, we need a separate back and shelf.

Rice. 2

On the pattern-based backrest, along the side cut down from point P, measure 4 cm and set point 1. Draw a horizontal line from point 1 until it intersects with the middle line of the backrest and set point 2. This will be the upper cut of the back.

Fig.3

Departing from the side cut of the base pattern by 1 cm to the left, we draw a new line of the side cut parallel to it.

Rice4

We close the drawer. The upper and lower sections are drawn with a smooth line.

Rice5

On the pattern of the base of the front, we close the chest tuck, transfer it to the tuck at the waist. To do this, we cut the line G74 (points G7 and 4 indicate the tops of the bust and waist darts).

Fig6

The top of the new tuck (point E) will now be on the bisector of the angle of the open tuck, approximately 4 cm from point G7. To build, you can use a compass.

Fig.7

We measure 4 cm along the side cut line down from point P and set point 5. Stepping back from the side cut by 1 cm, we draw a new line parallel to the previous side cut line. From point 5 we draw a perpendicular to the intersection with the new side cut line and set point 6.
Now we draw the upper section of the front of the bodice. On the line of the middle of the front down from point B4, set aside 13-15 cm, we get point K. From point G7 up along the line of the closed tuck, set aside 10 cm, we get point K1. Connecting points K, K1 and point 6, we draw the line of the upper cut of the front.

Rice. 8

Figure 9 shows the details of the cut of the back and front of the bodice. We will adjust the length of the straps in the process of trying on the figure.

And as always, I wish you creative inspiration and self-confidence!
