Clipping & Notching
This is one of the most important lessons. What you'll learn here and in subsequent lessons will be used almost anytime you make an outfit. It helps your curves lay flat and nice. Curves like necklines and armholes.
You will hear such terms like concave and convex curves. Not to worry. Concave curves simply mean curves that look like a valley e.g necklines and armholes. In such cases you clip.
Convex curves look like curved mountains. They protude outwards e.g bustlines. In such cases you notch.
You'll understand better as you begin the lessons.
As always, take close range pictures of each piece and upload for review and corrections.
