[DETAILED] Men's Basic Bodice Pattern Tutorial | Kim Dave

[@KimDave]

I plan on making a follow up video showing how I fix the fit of the sleeve and shoulder on Jorge. Stay tuned for that xx Kim

[@couplecrush8849]

Kim I love your effort and zeal. I wish I could come over so that we can work together on this project. This is my area of concentration. I am good at this. Especially the Nigerian senator.

[@ReisigSeeds]

I love seeing patterns being made. There aren’t enough mensware patterns made online. Thank you.

[@KimDave]

Wasn’t sure how menswear would be received on my channel, but I’m glad to see you enjoyed this one

[@jemjem9699]

@@KimDave it will be very very gladly received. All we see are womens patterns. Some bermuda and bodice patterns for men , some clothing patterns for toddler boys would be most welcome i'm sure.

[@dianneunderwood8456]

Thank you for posting this. I too have been drafting patterns for myself and wanted to try a men's wear top. Specifically a pullover half zip neck collared jacket with short sleeves. One thing that stood out to me when you were drawing the front bodice is how the chest and armhole are the same depth. AS opposed to most women's patterns where the armhole (chest line) is above the bust line measurement. Look forward to using your method to draw this up. Thanks again.

[@KimDave]

Glad it was helpful! Let me know how your men’s top project goes

[@Ladyjojo247]

Thank you for this video. I am a new/advanced sewer and I make for me and mom and I felt bad for dad. I know how to make this for a woman but needed help for a man. You did great I understood everything. Excellent.

[@kathleenwoods8416]

the sleeve cheat you show is really clever.

This is great I was going to buy a pattern to make my husband and kids garments for my wedding but I will try this tutorial first

[@vitaminvcc6093]

Coming in clutch. Perfect for my brother and dad.😆 Also for Mr. George a vest. Sorry if that was too foreword.

[@KimDave]

Hehehee that’s true Time to make clothes for the men in our lives too

[@carlamatthew3681]

Love this. ❤❤❤ cuz I’m going to be making garments for my fiancé. Thanks much for sharing 😘

[@KimDave]

Awwww that’s so sweet. I’m sure he’ll love that

[@carotherskids]

Yay, needed this to draft for my teen boys!

[@KimDave]

omg yes! I didn't think of that, but yes you can totally use the same steps to make a bodice pattern for your boys.

[@carotherskids]

Now all I need is men’s pants drafting

[@lawrencejlittle]

This is fantastic! However if I can ask for one thing to make it perfect it would be a visual representation of you taking the measurements. This would help all onlookers understand clearly exactly where the measurements should be taken and how. I have been working on clothing for my wife and find those type of videos truly beneficial…I hope you don’t take offense to my request because as I mentioned above I do love your work and will make an effort to use them…but the visual measurements segment would add more accuracy.

[@newheart1040]

Also why did you add a half inch after the 4" inch neck space 🤔 and 6.5 shoulder lenght?

[@michellecaudwell1559]

Thank u for the video Priscilla, I have been procrastinating a winter coat (donkey jacket or alike) for my hubby, would love to see one on that please if possible!?

[@KimDave]

Glad you enjoyed the video. Don’t know if I’ve reached winter coat level yet for menswear but I’m always down for a challenge 😉

[@michellecaudwell1559]

[@ENDER-mc2xz]

Sorry if its a silly question, but whats the sleeve hem width measurement?

[@michaelsrowland]

At 1.50 when you say a quarter of chest measurement when you look at the body from the side you can see that the front half is not the same as the back half

[@soltanakouider5922]

thks

[@KimDave]

You’re welcome ☺️

[@newheart1040]

So what I want to know is how does this make a button up if you didn't leave the space for the placket.

[@hindwaleed449]

Please kim make a tracksuit pattren for us??? 💋

[@kingrobinson9200]

Can u make a pants tutorial as well with placket and everything, also a blazer

[@lawrencejlittle]

Do you have samples of shirts you have made from this for your husband? I’m looking to make business dress shirts (long sleeve) for men (button down)

[@veenaap-lx7iw]

Can you tell me the shoulder formula plz

[@bridgetokagbare3572]

Please ma’am can you make a video or explain in the comment section how to measure elbow, wrist, sleeve length(full), how to measure knee circumference for trouser and six pieces skirt, and ankle measurement for trouser

[@KimDave]

I will keep your request in mind Bridget

[@bochraadili1499]

How pattern organisation ?

[@paulinemcintosh3252]

Why did you try the shirt 👕 on backwards ,,the sleeve need to be a more on the flat than curve but you can do it ♡♡♡♡

[@KimDave]

I know 🙈I’ve realised that now. I’ll make corrections to the patterns and make another sample

[@jimkoss3318]

Thank you!!!
