Specification Package
Fit and Revision
First Prototype
Final
A first prototype was produced so that a fitting could take place. During the fitting, several fit and finishing problems arose which were resolved for the final knit shirt.
Final Pattern
The final knit shirt consists of a fitted upper bodice with a lower bodice incorporating slight flare. The sweetheart neckline is finished with binding while the hemlines are finished with a lettuce hem. The upper bust section is gathered due to inner elastic and fits snug to the bust due to negative ease.
Self: 87% Polyester, 13% Spandex
