THE PRINCESS SEAM HACK FOR PERFECT FITTING GARMENTS | BASIC BODICE PATTERN HACK
In this video, I share my techniques for transforming basic bodice sewing patterns into 2 princess seam styles. The two princess seam styles are perfect for achieving a great fitting garment. I used one of the designs created for a self-drafted dress using a black polka dot rayon fabric. To see the full design, check it out on my blog www.sewsonatural.com/blog/draft-sew-princess-seams

Such a smart idea use a bra as a custom tailor’s ham. I’m going to try that because my regular ham isn’t anything close to my bust shape.😆

That old bra tip..... grabbing that idea. I made one with a bunch of scrap fabric and used interfacing to hold it in place. The bra cup seems like a better option for better shaping 👌🏽

Clear demo that is much appreciated. I'm glad you corrected yourself later in the video about whether you were using 1 inch or 1 cm seam allowance. I was a bit confused prior to that correction. I love the bra cup/saucer base idea!!

I've found that I have to extend the center armhole area on the side bodice so that it matches up when you sew it together. I definitely recommend a mock up for fitting issues before deciding that your pattern is complete

@JulietUzor_ 3 жыл бұрын

You’re right especially if you haven’t used the basic bodice at all. For this one, I used a truly tried and tested basic bodice which fits me well. 😊😊thanks so much Judie xx

An alternative to using the measuring tape for the arm hole is to use a flexible/moldable ruler.

Hi Juliet, this is a great video and very easy to follow. However I am currently making a second version of the Simplicity 8415 which is a drop waist dress - I just love a drop waist dress. The bodice doesn't have much shape to it, so I thought I would give it some princess seams. However can this method only done providing there is a waist dart? The only darts this pattern has it the bust darts. Any tips that might help would be greatly appreciated. I love your voice it is so soothing and relaxing :)

@elaine58100 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Juliet, could I ask about the navy/black and white dotty dress you are wearing? Is it a hack because I just love the top part (I do love the whole dress also) but I just love the collar which looks amazing. Is the top part from a particular pattern if so which pattern? Many thanks.

Hi Juliet. This tutorial came at the perfect time as i am trying to master a primcess bodice! Are the bodices on your website suitable for a full bust?

@JulietUzor_ 3 жыл бұрын

Yes they are! It's also useful to be ready to make any adjustments as needed for your body size

What if I have a princess seam cami (vintage sew lovely 1970s stretch pattern) that I want to make unto T? The princess seam goes from top of the bust where the spaghetti straps attach. Does it work to lay it over my T pattern (a free one from Always Autumn blog, I think I printed the classic T) and trace the princess seams in? I want to make some T with color blocked sides. I have worn A&D love toos which use raglan like a half a princess seam so I already know it's flattering. I might try to rotate the shoulder part of the seam to arm and make up a top in each to see what fits best and in different weight knits. I have 2 weights of hersey and some double brushed poly. The double brushed is a summer print on fabric which I consider to be too warm for my area unless I were making fashion leggings. I'm making a spring/fall top with it.

Hello! :D Thank you so much for this tutorial. Surely gonna be using this knew knowledge for my future sewing projects :) I get so happy from your videos, it is clear how much you enjoy the sewing and educating. 💕✨ I don't get why not more clothing just already has this, most clothes fit relatively square? ... just assuming it is a money thing like it always is xD ... that is why I would also be interested in a tutorial about putting princess seems in ready made clothes.

@JulietUzor_ 3 жыл бұрын

Princess seams are so unique and they give clothes a very special fit. I’m so glad I’m not the only one who gets it. You’re surely right! Most clothes these days have a boxy \ square fit 🤔🤔
