How many times has it happened that you have selected the perfect blouse design for yourself, but due to some reason or the other its fitting was not good? It happens with most of the women that their design is very good, but while getting it stitched by the tailor, that design is bound to get spoiled. Finding the right tailor to get the blouse stitched and making its design perfect is challenging not only for the one who stitches but also for you.
Be it a saree or a lehenga, if the blouse is not stitched properly, it can spoil your entire look. Many times you may have to face problems regarding this. Many times, there is a risk of wardrobe malfunction due to faulty fittings. However, even before letting the tailor get the blouse stitched, there are many ways in which you can get the fitting of the blouse done properly.
Before getting the blouse stitched, you will have to give some instructions to the tailor and also pay attention before selecting the design. Today we are going to tell you about those tips which can help you.
Keep these things in mind before getting the blouse stitched
If you are going to buy blouse fabric or select a design, then definitely keep these things in mind.
Do not buy blouse fabric without checking the colour balance
Even if you are not getting the blouse stitched with the saree, still choose a fabric which does not wash off the saree. Even if you have to choose a contrasting colour of the saree or lehenga, keep in mind that if the pattern of the saree is simple, then the blouse will be designer and if the saree is very heavy, then keep the blouse simple.
Always choose light and airy fabric for the blouse
You have to choose such a fabric through which air can pass easily and you do not sweat too much in the blouse. Many times, due to sweating, the armpits become very wet, the marks of which become visible on the blouse. To prevent this, choose a light cloth.
Study body type before selecting a blouse design
Yes, of course, you can select any design, but the study of body type is also important to some extent. For example, if you have sloping shoulders, a boat neck blouse will fall off the shoulders. If you have the problem of too much back fat and want to wear backless, then you can choose a design which has a keyhole shape. This will hide most of the back fat area and the back will also look stylish.
Tell the tailor these tips related to getting the blouse stitched
Now comes the turn to give instructions to Taylor. Even if you are one of those people who don't like giving too many instructions, you should still tell them these things.
How deep should the neckline be according to the design?
Many times women leave this decision to the tailor. This should not be done, you may have chosen a design with a backless or deep neckline, but its measurements may have changed according to your body. Whatever shape you have chosen, please give information about how deep the front and back neck should be and how much you are comfortable with.
Get sleeves fitted at least twice
From the armhole to the full diameter of the sleeves, sometimes they become too tight or too loose due to just taking a single fitting. This is what you should not do and get your fitting done at least twice. While fitting the sleeves, keep a margin of at least half a centimetre. In such a situation, even if there is bloating in the body, the fitting of your blouse will not get spoiled and you will have scope to move your hands properly.
Pay attention before adding a very heavy pendant to the blouse
If you have chosen a very heavy pendant in the design, then the fabric of the blouse should be a little stiff, otherwise, instead of having the right shape, the blouse will look a little misshapen. Talk to your tailor about this too.
