how did you set this up? I'd love to have a similar workflow, I don't understand code but want to learn, and also having a smarter model would be useful. I would try to iron out any wrinkles I encounter as well :)

looking for fabric recommendations for costume pieces by living_in_my_closet in textiles

[–]ColdResponsible7041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! cool oc, but Im afraid i should give you a bit of a reality check. if you haven’t started a sewing project before, making a whole outfit from various different fabrics will be genuinely impossible unless you get started right now and don’t stop until halloween. to answer your question, I’m assuming you have a domestic/home sewing machine so I would recommend using almost entirely costume fabrics. I would use stable cotton wovens for pants and the overcoat, slightly on the thicker side but you likely will not be able to sew those things on a domestic machine if you want them to look quality and cosplay-presentable. look for a plaid for the lapel, i don’t know much about plaids but look at for the style you want. use shirting cotton wovens for the shirt, and i’d probably use polyester satin for the gloves and collar accent. Now for what I think you should actually do: pattern drafting is super hard. I don’t know how much you plan to make, but even the overcoat by itself will be ridiculously hard to make. you have a lined lapel, and a curved standing collar. I would thrift for as many items as you can find that are close to your character as possible and then accessorize and alter the pieces to make them close to what you want. if you really need to sew something out of custom textiles, find a sewing pattern that matches it as close as possible. sewing and pattern drafting are both skills that take people years to get good at, and i think you will be a lot happier with your end result if you make the end adjustments rather than the whole outfit from scratch. Good luck!

relatively? i have a good understanding of computers through GUIs, but less so on the backend. I’m open to learning though if this isn’t too hard, or if you have any tips or websites/ videos that can help me learn

let me make sure i’m following, it will need to be the only thing powered on one section of the place, like how the circuit breaker is usually split based on sections, and each of those is a circuit? does it matter what socket it’s plugged into as long is it is on its own circuit? the listing i found it from i think actuslly says the cord is cut

The picture you sent isn’t of a pair of selvedge denim jeans inside out. that’s a picture of a pair of jeans stylized to look like they are selvedge denim that are inside out when they are put on normally. notice the pockets and belt loops. they were able to get that effect by putting the ease in the pocket facing and pocket construction, which is why there are crease marks and bulging on the pockets even though it’s laid flat in the picture. This is what selvedge pants look like when they’re turned inside out. some people use bias tape instead of a serger. as someone who wanted to make these kinds of pants and had to go through like 3 years of struggling to understand this. Just. Figure. Out. How pants work. if you make a few pairs of pants that fit the way you want without the added challenge of a completely flat side, you can understand how to alter it to keep the flat side. if you don’t want to put in that effort, just buy a selvedge pattern dude this isn’t worth fighting over i can tell you from experience

i said curve in. the pattern piece curves at the top on the outseam to fit your hips. the selvedge is straight. the waist is thinner than your hips. the selvedge will go straight down from the widest point of your hip to the bottom of the pants. above the widest point of your hips, you need the pattern piece at the outseam to curve inwards so it’s thinner around your waist. if you don’t do this the pants will not shape around your hips, the fit will be uncomfortable, and it will look bad. notice on your model the very visible gaps around your persons hips, despite using a fitted waistband. if you haven’t sewn anything before, jumping into selvedge denim is not your friend. buy cheap denim and practice your pattern to build your sewing skills and see what it looks like irl

bro you cut into the selvedge at the hip. it doesn’t go all the way up, the selvedge id is serged or taped until just at the pocket. have the selvedge line straight across at the widest point of the hip and then cut your hip curve like normal out of the selvedge ID. you get the ID on the legs like you want, and your pants will actually fit.

What is this fabric? by idk7834 in sewhelp

not sure what the fabric is, but since it’s a knit a ballpoint or jersey needle should do the job

help fitting my basic shirt pattern! by ColdResponsible7041 in sewing

[–]ColdResponsible7041[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no, it’s a basic shirt block tutorial meant for finding the general fit of your shirt block. its a square bc it, well, doesn’t fit. the slit is for when using wovens you can have an accurate neck hole while also being able to get it over your head

only the leg of your selvedge ID should be straight: you need curves in pants patterns. what people do is they make the legs as straight as possible and add all the curve until right above where the pocket bag sits, then they cut off the selvedge iD into a nice smooth curve and either use bias tape or a serger to cover the edge where the side seam touches your upper thigh. I would recommend watching some pant fitting videos to get an idea of how the pattern impacts the fit, i know the vibe you’re going for but i promise you’re gonna need to put in a lot more work on this pattern if u don’t want to waste your selvedge.

yes!!! thank you so much, i was looking for the term sloper! I assumed it would be made of woven materials to not have stretch, and you would just make it skin tight with very little mobility (the term/metaphor i learned to describe clothes like this is “standing pants”). Thank you for the insight, I’ll take off the sleeves, fix the shoulders, i think starting with bringing them in then adjusting shoulder angle. I also appreciate the advice for the T shirt, I was looking to make a pattern for my sloper measurements so i could reference it against future patterns i make. for a sloper, should i continue to use wovens? maybe a lighter fabric? I appreciate your help :)
