Drap a top
Description
Draped and custom made
Today we drape our first bodice. We create from a two-dimensional fabric a three-
dimensional top. You can then change this top according to your design and taste.
I work on the dressform, but if you don't have it, you can also drape directly on a person who wears a tight-fitting top , on this top you can pin your fabric.
This bodice can then also be the basice pattern for you, and your variations
It is great fun to drape on the dressform or directly on a body,where you can immediately see the effect and the fabrics fall.

I, Sophie Springer, born in Vienna, studied fashion design in Florence and
specialized in bags, for which I learned both the craft and the design.
Since 2004 I have my own bag collection "Sophie
Springer"; from design and cutting to manufacturing, everything happens in
Florence, where I have lived for more than 30 years.
For 15 years I have been teaching in various
international fashion schools in this city; I give courses in draping,
pattern drawing, sewing and accessories.
Due to the Covid crisis, in 2020 I started to teach online courses
which is a highly interesting experience and challenge.
