What is draping in fashion?

Fashion draping is the process of positioning and pinning muslin on a dress form to create the basic pattern or to design or innovate new designs of dress. In the draping lab, our students do a lot of experiments where study on variation of cascade is one of many. Draping for fashion design is a great science and art that helps the fashion designers to do hands-on experiment to bring their products from design to manifestation.

How to drape a Cascade?

First the basic draping of tops and skirts are done.

 

This is the final variation of cascade and this is achieved by attaching the cascade with the basic tops by sewing.

 

The cowl neck is attached with the cascade. The two types of variations give the tops an amazing view.

 

 

 

These fashion draping works are done by Jeba Samia, a student of Department of Textile Fashion and Design, Bangladesh University of Textiles (BUTEX).
