Wireless bras make up a small percentage of the lingerie range. However, there is a category of women who prefer them exclusively. These include those with large breasts. And also women with sensitive skin, when any compaction causes discomfort, because the bones are made on a metal base.
In bras without wires, the breasts look natural, without enlargement, nothing squeezes or pinches, and it’s even easier to breathe. That is, products of this type have obvious advantages of use.
But it is not always possible to find a successful model on sale so that the fit is perfect. Therefore, if you know how to sew, you can create a pattern taking into account your parameters, which guarantees an accurate fit.
A bra without wires can be of two types.
- Lace bralette, the cup in it resembles a triangle, suitable for small breasts;
- A classic bra with a regular cup, but without an underwire.
What you need to create a pattern
Since the lace bralette is the easiest to sew, let's look at the construction of its cup.
There is no need to cut the ribbon for the fastener, since the triangles are sewn to the lace with or without elastic, and then the hook is attached.
IMPORTANT! This pattern is also useful for a summer swimsuit if you use supplex or any other dense knitted fabric. The pattern is suitable for those with breast sizes 1–2.
Although it is much easier to guess the size when using stretch lace, however The bralette will fit more securely and will not move if you choose a fabric that does not stretch. Stretch fabrics sit beautifully and hug, but they always shift as they slide across the skin.
Let's look at the construction of a pattern using a specific example.
Materials and tools
To create a pattern you will need:
- A sheet of white paper A4;
- Ruler;
- Pencil or pen;
- Measuring tape;
- Scissors.
Measurements
- First of all, you need to measure line under the chest starting from the side of the armpit and ending in the middle of the sternum. In our case it is 18 cm.
- It is also necessary to determine chest height. This is a segment from the most protruding point (nipple) to the bottom line under the breast. This segment is 7 cm.
- And the last measure - finished product height, selected at your discretion. Let's take 14 cm, but it can be 12–13 cm.
How to make a bralette pattern
We'll tell you step by step how to draw a bra.
For ease of perception, all lines are drawn in different colors. You should start constructing the pattern from the edge of the sheet.
- Need to draw a line to the right equal to 9 cm (18/2), which will be the middle of the chest.
- From this point, draw a 7 cm segment straight up.
- From the bottom line and from the edge of the sheet measure up 14 cm.
- Now all these dots are connected.The result is a polygon with sharp corners.
- To get rounded lines, you need Mark the midpoint of each segment.
- Connect the middle of one and the other with a smooth rounded line.
- Cut, and half of the cup will be ready, the second is cut in exactly the same way. Then they connect along that rounded line.
As you can see, cutting out such a bra model will not be difficult even for novice needlewomen.
