Instructions for the pattern construction of three different wedding dresses.

Pattern construction for Halter Top

Inspiration Runway: Holdernack dresses at Mabille and Lena Hoschek.

The straps of the halter top run from the front around the back and are closed behind the neck. Most of the back is uncovered (the back has only a Wide waistband). Use the fitted dress pattern (fig. 9 and 10) as a foundation for the design development.

Relocate the bust dart and the front waist dart to the side seam. Draw the Wide waistband and the neckline according to the design or as preferred. Take away 0.5 cm at each side of the back waist dart for a snug fit of the waistband. The width of the waistband can be further reduced on the finished pattern pieces. Draw the neck holder strap as shown on the back pattern.

Draft 2

Separate the waistband pieces and relocate the side dart to the waist. Join the front and back bodice together at the side seam. Trace a copy of the back neck strap and place it on the front shoulder with the neck points matching. Draw the halter shape and the armhole shape. Mark a cutting line from the bust point to the armhole. Slash and overlap the front pieces at the armhole and the neckline for a closer fit. The front Will open at the waist for the gathering width.
