I used CLO3d to drape the mockup for this dress on the body and then altered the pattern to correct fit elements. The pattern matching for this garment was a bit on the more difficult side since the repeat was so large so I anchored myself relative to a specific point on the pattern for all of my pieces.
This is a digital draping piece I did as my CLO3d midterm. I was given a rendering and my professor acted as the designer as I draped the piece in CLO. I flat patterned a sloper and cut and added to the piece in CLO to get to my desired shape, using CLO's ability to animate the clothing frequently in order to ensure I was getting the right shape. I used the stress and strain maps to see if I was making the clothing too tight as well. The dress has two layers, a sturdy fabric and a delicate sheer, these fabrics are to be flatlined to each other. Because of how many pieces I had the rendering in CLO struggled and with the sheer pieces the solid layer skirt was just invisible at some points.
I draped -with the leadership of Erika Krauss- a dress for the musical 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee where I used flat patterning and helped with the paperwork of ordering pleating. I was present in fittings and was taught how to conduct myself properly in a fitting as a draper. I also attended tech after each major change to the costume to discuss with the designer Anna Ten Eyck.
I draped the Gynecia costume in full from a dress form, some of the elements in this costume required crafting knowledge such as using a Dremel to cut holes in dollar store funnels to attach them to the costume and adhesive spray to attach batting to the funnels. The show photos have not been released yet so I can not add photos of what the costume looked like on stage at this point.
