Drafting a Panty (Panties) Sloper
Learn how to draft a full-brief panty sloper and pattern using the sloper that you created in our One-piece Bodysuit/Swimsuit draping lesson. We will teach you about different types of panty shapes including briefs, hipsters and thongs and how to create the crotch panel on a panty.
If you haven’t draped a bodysuit/swimsuit sloper, for this lesson we have provided free graded swimsuit-bodysuit slopers (U.S. sizes 2-16) for you to download, print out and cut out your particular size. Use our Color Map download to help guide you with the cutting process. The UoF Global Size Chart will assist you in locating your size and size equivalent for the UK, Europe and Asia.
The sloper needed for this lesson can be found in our Draping lesson: One-piece Bodysuit-Swimsuit Sloper or you can download and print our free bodysuit/swimsuit sloper included in this lesson.
