Neoprene Fabrics Are Used To Reproduce Vintage Clothes

By Robert Graham


People are showing interest in older styles and as a result, they are reproducing them and bringing them in style again. Examples of these include vintage cars, rings and clothes. This article hereby addresses the latter. Since vintage clothes are trending at the moment, clothing stores and seamstresses are shifting towards them and most of them are using reproduction vintage clothing patterns on Neoprene Fabrics. In the 1800s, Ellen Curtis Demorest produced the first sewing pattern and currently the patterns range from the 1800s to the 1990s.

These patterns can be used to aid new seamstresses to sew vintage garments. The first ones were made of tissue paper, then later they started producing the printed forms. They come in different sizes and have detailed instructions for beginners. They can be found either on physical stores or on online clothing stores.

Thanks to technology, you can now buy online patterns as soft copies and make hard copies yourself. This way you know they will always be readily available on your computer should you need them. But not everyone is a fan of technology, some just prefer to buy the original paper patterns. The risk is that if they get torn then they ll have to buy another one, unless if they make copies of the original and save it.

They are very easy to find, especially where used items are sold. They are almost always available at yard sales, real estates and antique shows because this is where people normally sell their lifetime collections. Vintage clothing stores also have them and at a very reasonable price. There are also a number of bloggers who have a collection of them online.

Online shoppers get to enjoy buying them on online retail stores like Amazon and eBay in the comfort of their homes if they don t want to go to yard sales. And geeks also have the opportunity of creating their own vintage patterns through newly innovated apps like Photoshop and Pattern Master Boutique.

So you bought the patterns, what s the next step? To use them to make a dress of your dreams. But first, you will need few materials to aid with the process, namely: two rulers, one curved and one straight, pattern weights, scissors, pencils and erasers. If you are going to be tracing them then you ll need a long and large paper together with an iron.

There are several types of papers used for this. The tracing paper is the most usable one because it is clear. Then there is a wrapping paper, this one will be very difficult to see through it while tracing the patterns. The last one is the dot paper, it is very easy to use and found very cheap. The paper has to be ironed first and then tracing will begin ending with sewing.

Tracing is for those who prefer to reuse, others use them once and have them as collections not sewing apparatus. Whichever reason it may be, vintage clothing patterns are attractive in today s age and you should probably own one if you re into sewing.
