I love when they show the artists in the ateliers. These talented people make the designers dream come to life. It's this kind of hard work in the background that makes it all seem so effortless on the runway! Cheers!
What a pleasure to watch this clip! I'm just a guy and I don't know much about tailoring. In fact, I've learned about draping and what it means only today from this video. Thanks to Christian Dior and this amazing modelist.
Here's what she's done: First she does the calculations of the body measurements and the dimensions, she uses a tape as guide lines of where this and that lays on the body as well as highlighting the bust/waist/hip line being parallel to the floor and the apex point (center of the bust which is useful to create darts ). She cuts a squared patterned cloth and mark the center front/back and places the cloth with the CB/CF lines on the center of the body. And drapes the fabric according the the tape guidelines. She uses a ruler to measure and mark the pleated lines evenly and places it on the body. She does only one side because the other side is exactly the same. What happens later, she should mark the pattern and where the joints are, writing notes numbers or guidelines if necessary. Then she will unpin the cloth and lay it flat on the table , refine the marks. Then this becomes a pattern, this pattern will be placed on top of the design fabric and follow the pattern made. :)
personally i think this is a great video..i have been 'sewing' for 40 years,i've always wanted to know how this was done...i only wish i had taken the opportunity wheni was young to go to college and learn..my parents were right. thank you so very much for posting, i look forward to your future posts also.
marchela2002 She's retired now but still evaluating my final exams in 2 weeks :O The people are really liking their jobs in this kind of career and they're sharing their passion and that's beautiful
Awesome!!!! Thank you so much for posting this. It helps me a lot when it comes to draping. If you have any more fashion draping videos to post it will be greatly appreciated! =)
I'm utterly amazed that one lone woman did that! I came to this video expecting to see a team of people. Wow, where do you go to learn skills like this because that level of talent isn't seen often.
this is magnificent, i have my final test at the school and is moulage Technic, thank u for this video,u have inspired me very much,,, we want some more pls :D
this is so cool, a bit more of an "insider's view" than Dior & I. I was glad to see that the people who told me that couture drapers (modelistes) always pin perpendicular to the seam WERE WRONG and I've been pinning correctly all these years. ;-) But I have a question for you insiders- Does the modeliste also sew the final garment? To me, sewing and draping are two very different talents, but in Dior & I, it seemed the modeliste did both. I'm a brilliant draper, but I sew like a drunken sailor!
Just ask for some narrow ribbon! ;) cotton or polyester is fine. Choose one that has a contrasting color to you mannequin. Make sure you accurately and correctly mark the waistline, breast line, hipline, mid front, mid back, shoulder drops, side divisions, and arm girth. You can just pin the ribbon until its correct, but then just use a loose wide stitch to fix it, as these ribbons will always be of pivotal use, when trying out the garments on the mannequin.
Currently studying patternmaking in Paris, moulage would be considered the equivalent of draping....but more precise - aka there are set parameters - (grainlines, basic measurements, etc.) to work from to create the look - plus the patternmaker's own objective intepretation of the croquis....hope this helps!
Thanks for all the great lovely responses! Things have been quite busy around here. There are plans for a series of VERY interesting videos. I'll be showing some genuine haute couture basics from scratch! How to accurately take measures of a body (and a fitting mannequin), compensating for the asymmetries, how to place the bolducs (guiding ribbons) on mannequins, how to make your personal customized fitting mannequin, how to create your base patterns... Just have a little patience! ;)
Thanks for the heads up on the misspell. My editor has been fired. ;) Moulage (muˈlɑʒ) is a french word that means to make a mold of something, frame or model around or on which something is formed or shaped. Its intrinsically connected to the bespoke dummy, made to the clients shape and measurements. French terminology in couture sometimes does not translate as clearly to the english.
'Bolducs" is a french term for the ribbons that mark the key heights and divisions in a mannequin. In this video you can see they are the light ribbons over the black mannequin. They help accuracy and ease up the work, without requiring constant measuring.
Eliana Damore| what she just did was create the pattern so she just transfers it all to paper then cuts it out again in the ideal fabric. I love this video it reminds me of when the mice in Cinderella are sewing her dress together
Um, you may want to reconsider your comment. Considering that "An example of direct drapping technique (moulage), by a modelist at Christian Dior.…", I think the draper knows what she is doing.
This is a direct pattern on dummy construction technique. To try out the proportions and flow of a garment. Afterwards the pattern is disassembled from the dummy and copied into the final fabrics.
Wow! Thanks Rui! You seem very knowledgeable on the subject? :-) In a traditional fabric store, what would I look for? Do they call it bolducs, or is there an American term for it (I'm in the U.S.) I just bought a pinnable mannequin, and would love to challenge myself on this 'moulage' method. Thank you so much for your information.
Your assessment is only partially correct. In 1931, Dior fell into hard times, as his older brother suddenly passed away and soon after his mother, and his father's respected art gallery foreclosed. He sold fashion drawings to the house of Robert Piguet, whom he became assistant to until the late 30's. This is actually from the collections he draw for Piguet.
I love when they show the artists in the ateliers. These talented people make the designers dream come to life. It's this kind of hard work in the background that makes it all seem so effortless on the runway! Cheers!

Absolutely blew my mind! This professional subject matter Expert......I will watch many more times. I am inspired, thank you!
So talented. You can tell she is exactly sure of what she is doing the way she just fearlessly cuts the Muslin
WOW ! It's fascinating to see someone who has a big knowledge and so talented ! Thanks for sharing! 🤗👏

Chapeau la couturière : la très grande pro et belle femme mature en plus!
love it, enjoyed every second of this video, thank you!

みていてとても興味をもちました
すごくステキです
really love draping, would like to more information on how to learn this technique.

This video inspired me!
'Bolducs" is a french term for the ribbons that mark the key heights and divisions in a mannequin. In this video you can see they are the light ribbons over the black mannequin. They help accuracy and ease up the work, without requiring constant measuring.
This Video has tells....How A Designer do work for their collection or Designer clothes...
Espectacular. Una gran maestra.

классно очень, восхищаюсь профессионализмом модистки!!
i feel like i learnt alot just watching this
This is amazing!
What do they do after that? What's the process?, Is the fabric dyed? or is that canvas fabric used as the carcas for the real dress?
Will be use as templates.
I want to see the finished gown!
Thanks again Rui, you're awesome! :-)
She's amazing !
Astonishing!
Wonderful!! How about create a On Line School of Moulage!! I'll be very happy! Congratulations for your perfect techique!
WOW! Beautiful!
Lol, I was dancing to the music the whole time.

The name of the song is FEMME FATALE
