DIY Alteration 4 - Shoulder Seam Placement - The Fashion Run-Up

Описание: Check out my updated video on shoulder alterations here    • How To Adjust Shoulder Seams And Chest - D...  . A lighter garment for better visibility, and I extend the dart down to the chest to decrease the chest width as well.

I talk about the best ways to alter the shoulders of garments.

Shoulder fit is the most important area to improve on because your shoulders frame your face. As you go about your day, your face and shoulder area is usually the most noticed part of your body by other people.

Take the time to make sure your shoulder seams are in the correct place. Make sure the seams aren't hanging off your arms! The most common fit mistake is shoulder seams on a garment that are too wide.

Adding darts or tucks to the shoulder middle is the quickest and easiest way to fit shoulder seams to your body.

Check out my video here on how to have the best fit, including shoulder, waist, wrist, and ankle placement.
