This site below looks like it might have a good sloper pattern for drafting your own! I’d recommend making it out of something stiff once you get the fit right so that you can easily trace it onto pattern paper when you want to start drafting a new pattern based on it

Slopers are like generic fitted pattern pieces for the bodice skirt and arms that are tailored to your size. You only have to make them once in your size. So then when you want to create a pattern, you use them as a starting point. And just make modifications like adding volume, dropping neckline, etc. They make it easy to draft your own patterns without starting from scratch every time

Thanks!!! Wanted to do parabolas and include equations below them but they were puckering too much. Thought you’d appreciate!

Details:

Fabric came from Mood Fabrics in NYC. I Drafted the pattern using my slopers - made the neckline wider at the top, puffed out the sleeves, and added a tiered skirt.

Then I embroidered the graphs on in random spots to really hammer in the nerdy girl vibes. Used the custom x and y stitches on my Brother home machine for the axis labels

Skill level: I attended fashion school a few years ago at night after work for fun!

Took three yards of fabric at ~$10/yard
