thefrockchick:operafantomet:Favourite “All I Ask of You” photos from the US Patti Cohenour and Steve Barton, Broadway Tim Martin Gleason and Elizabeth Loyacano, Las VegasJordan Donica and Ali Ewoldt, Broadway Kyle Barisich and Trista Moldovan, US Tour or Broadway Patti Cohenour and Steve Barton, Broadway Lisa Vroman and Michael Shawn Lewis, Broadway Kyle Barisich and Mary Michael Patterson, Broadway Jeremy Hays and Sierra Boggess, BroadwayKyle Barisich and Samantha Hill, BroadwayI want every one here who is interested in costuming to look at photo 7. See that? Her sleeve and side panel are designed for being able to do the full range of shoulder movement!a) The side-front panel is either on the bias or a similar fabric in stretch. I suspect bias, maybe lined in stretch. The tell tale is the particular kind of wrinkles.b) the side seams go up up up. The bodice side seam needs to be “too long” if we were using modern patterns.c) the underside of the sleeve extends up past the side back and front seams and eliminates the need for a circular gusset as is common on theatre clothing. Imagine her arm hanging down and the top of the underside folds in on itself.I did something very similar as a separate piece in my Der Toto jacket and Elsa jacket patterns. The circular piece is separate here for fitting. And because the seam is under the arm not up the back. I really want to move it up the back. -- source link
