Today, stores offer a wide range of underwear. For each outing, a girl can choose a certain type of underwear. However, if you want to sew your own ideal set, you will have to work a little, since this is not an easy task, because the pattern contains 3 darts for only one breast, instead of the usual one for a dress or blouse.
Types of bras
Only a small part of the varieties of bras: balconette, sports, for pregnant women, braided, push up, bandeau, seamless, strapless, corset, corbeil, brasier, with soft cup, bustier, triangular, bandage, demi, bralette, invisible, “Angelica”, with front clasp , closed, filled, etc.
Some bras cover only the lower part of the breast, some cover the entire breast, there are types that emphasize the bust, and others that reduce it.Separately, there are nursing bras (their tops can be opened); there are many types of products. Each girl chooses the necessary option for a specific period of her life. This article examines the construction of a basic underwire bra.
Taking measurements:
Necessary materials
It is better to sew underwear sets from light fabrics (cotton, viscose, polyamide, elastane).
Advice! In summer it is better to sew from silk, in winter from cotton.
Consumption for one product is 20-30 cm with a width of 1.5 m, you will also need additional fittings:
- rings;
- fasteners, buttons, Velcro;
- regulators;
- bones;
- calyxes;
- lace;
- straps;
- tunnel tape.
Important! For pregnant women, it is better to sew underwear with the addition of lycra - it holds its shape better.
Constructing a basic underwire bra pattern
The total number of parts is 5, if necessary, use additional push-up:
- We cut out the details for the back part and the lace top.
- Let's sew these parts together.
- Sew on the belt with fasteners.
- We connect the selected straps to the bodice.
Depending on the required thickness, we insert foam rubber into the pushup. We sew the drawstring between the belt and the front part of the bodice, you also need to insert the bones, making sure to leave 1 cm of margin on each side.
When shrinking, the fabric will not tear when it is pulled over the bone. Also, in order not to sew on the drawstring, you can initially make a larger allowance, then turn it up and stitch it.
Tips for good breast support
It is necessary to follow all the rules for designing the basics of a bra and take measurements correctly.
Use a sample before sewing, try on, there should be no sagging of the cups due to weak tightening of the straps.
Maintain the required balance of straps in underwear without wires; if there is no proper fit, you cannot do without wires.
Determining your cup size
To do this, you will need 2 measurements: chest girth and underbust girth. Subtract the smaller number from the larger one and get the desired size.
Cup bra
We place the finished cups between pieces of fabric and stitch them on both sides, the lower part that connects to the belt remains unstitched.
Different breast shapes
We sew the upper part of the bodice to the belt, the seam allowance is folded and sewn so as to form a drawstring for the bones. Finally, the straps are sewn on.
Every girl should have a lot of underwear in her wardrobe, however, shopping in a store does not always please the owner of lace while wearing it.
To ensure that your underwear fits perfectly, it is best to create a pattern yourself. Yes, it's not easy at first, but it's worth it. Once you have built a basic model that is not only beautiful, but also comfortable, you will no longer want to return to purchased products.
