Women Blazer
Garment reference: No reference to specific garment/brand. But I do look at random image searches for some detail.Bodice: Bunka textbook 1, bunka style bodice blockJacket instruction: Bunka textbook 4, tailored jacket.Fabric: Woven. I use wool. In my opinion, even if you use the correct fabric, you can never achieve the smooth tailored look as the real garment because the real garment has linings and further shaped by ironing and steam. I did not use any steam on this garment, but you can try.Not shown in video: Surgeon cuff. Buttons. Welt pock...
Oversized Bomber Jacket
*Real time video for patron only - Link.Garment reference: “METHADONE” Layered killer moto bomber jacket by SHINELUXURY. This jacket was introduced to me by a patreon subscriber.Bodice: ESMOD bodice block with dart. I choose this block because the real garment has shoulder dart. This is the only men block I know that has shoulder dart. However, any basic men block is suitable because the dart is not important, especially for an oversized jacket like this. You can easily fake the dart by cutting a slit.Sleeve: ESMOD pivoted kimono sleeve.Fab...

Casual Top
Reference garment: This Nike shirt got my attention because the cutting is unusual for a mass-produced brand like Nike. Kinda looks like taekwondo uniform. Unfortunately, I cannot find the product page. If anyone know, please comment.Bodice: Aldrich kimono block. *** As most Aldrich men block, it has built-in seam allowance that need to be removed during tracing. In the video, I made a minor mistake where I offset hem allowance along the sleeve opening, which I was not suppose to do accordingly to original instruction. This made the sleeve leng...

Vstitcher garment
This is just a simple T-shirt and shorts, using football outfit pattern. You can find the files in the 'extra' folder in shared link.I spend about several hours per week for the last month to complete this. This is what I learnt so far comparing this program to Clo.- I is very painful to accurately draft pattern internally. You have to relied on other program like adobe illustrator. I personally use seamly, however the program have problem importing the dxf file from seamly -it just show up as blank. I have to resort to svg instead, but...
Short Tweed Jacket
Reference garment: Studio Tomboy Short Tweet JacketBodice: Loosely based on Burgo single-breasted jacket.Sleeve: Burgo two-piece sleeve. The two-piece sleeve for women garments in this book is the less formal version of it because the underarm seam in directly under the bodice underarm point. Other authors refer to it as 'back-seamed sleeve' or the 'casual two piece sleeve'.Fabric: It is not a tweed jacket if not using tweed fabric, but there is no tweed fabric in the library. I use the usual wool instead, but change the physica...
Midi Dress
Garment reference: Xirena Eloise Ruched Blouson-Sleeve Empire Midi DressBodice and sleeve: Armstrong basic dress foundation. This is not an easy block to make because it requires a lot of size measurement. Unless you have all the accurate measurements on hand, I find it easier to simplify some meausurements, then adjust during fitting.

I use silk.Note: Everything are show...

Vstitcher/Browzwear
I'm glad that Clo/MD exist, but hate that it is the only good program to make 3D garment for individual creator. I'm wish that I can use blender to make good 3D garment but it is not possible at the moment.Vstitcher from Browzwear is another viable alternative, but only if you manage to obtain the license. I was granted indie license last year. I cannot comment much about the program because I'm not using it much. But it seem to have to have fewer features than Clo/MD. But there are more choice of free fabrics and trims. The license...

Timelapse: Baggy Cargo Pants
Reference garment: Balenciaga Large Cargo Pants.Pants block: Aldrich jeans block.Fabric: Woven. I use cotton heavy twill. Actual fabric is cotton ripstop.Full length video link.Notes:- I think this is the minimum amount that is considered baggy. If you want more bagginess, just increase the bottom width after you finish with the fitting the basic shape.- The particle distance is set to 10 which I think a good compromise between simulation and render. For best render result, set the particle distance to 5.- Clo only features that I use in the vi...
