The process of draping also allows you to make different paper patterns and designs which can be used further for idealization of the next dress.

In this process initially dresses are draped on dummy with a cheaper quality fabric so sometimes the look of the final garment cannot be assessed correctly by this method. Each of the above mentioned steps or techniques are designed to help in making the process of draping easier and develop the draping skills.

The next step is truing – the process of taking the muslin off of the dress form, laying it out flat on a table, and using rulers and design curves to connect and finalize the markings you made in the previous step. Measure from the apex (fullest point of the bust) to the center front, then add ⅛” for seam allowance Tip 6: Also, when analyzing the drape remember in removing the pins from the form that you should also pin all of the draped seams together to get an accurate picture of what the final garment will look like when sewn. At this point, side-seams and princess seams can be pinned together from a 360-degree vantage point on the form to demonstrate how the newly constructed garment will hang. This is one of the main advantages of draping as a method of garment construction and provides lots of visual stimulation to the creative designer.

Pin the resulting length of tape to the top edge of the curtain. Center the tape within the hem, and adjust side to side so the first loop is about 1” in from the left edge. When done correctly, it's an attractive look that enhances and hides specific features, resulting in a comfortable and fashion-forward look that will turn heads. Get creative. Fashion draping should be treated as an art form. Try out different clothing designs while you’re draping. You don’t have to get it right the first time if you’re using cheap fabric. To draw attention to the front bodice and to bring out the profile silhouette, drape your sketched garment twice. Try it again after you’ve taken what you like from both. One way to use draping creatively is as described here. Why is Draping Useful? No Obligation.

Whereas Madame Grès also known as the Queen of the Drape used classical draping style as a source of inspiration for her designs. She was rumored to do her draping on live models rather than dress forms. Madame Grès created white or cream-draped garments that related to antiquity in European Culture. Components such as posture, coherent form, color, the relationship between light and shadow, and expression were part of Grès‘s creations. Conclusion The muslin or fabric used for draping must be reasonably priced and must resemble the original material. It’s possible to begin the process with a design sketch and drape according to that image, but you can also start designing right then and there with the dress form, letting the ideas flow.
