Bustier and Suspender Belt


These are just examples of how good 
we can make lingerie in our first year, 
like when we made the briefs and thong. 
The paper pattern is made up from the mannequin, 
which we use calico to wrap around the mannequin 
then copy it onto spot & cross paper 
to make sure everything fits.




The Bustier
It is made up of 8 panels, 
using plastic boning, overfolding elastic for the hem, 
hook and eyes and a special machine 

to create the holding for the boning.


The Suspender Belt.
It is made up of 8 panels. 
Basically using the same techniques and materials 
as the bustier. 
With added suspender clips.
