Basic Draping

Draping is the art of fabric manipulation that allows the designer to gain full control of his preference and ideas  by positioning  pieces of garment  on a dress form. Pinning is used to secure the pleats, darts, and gathers.

Madame Gres was one of the leading designers who adapted the concept of Draping, which started in 3500 BC through the creative minds of Romans and Egyptians.
