Hi Susan here.
2
Okay let's talk about it.
3
What is a sloper?
4
What is a block?
5
What is a pattern block?
6
Are they all the same?
7
Hmm let's find out.
8
That's what's next.
9
all right so let's talk about it this question has come up
10
so often that it is almost like
11
that pin in the side of my ribs right
12
so I thought I should talk about it
13
and um clarify some things about it okay I think
14
that the reason why people are struggling with this is not only
15
because of the terminology
16
which is in essential for fashion designers I want you to understand this terminology
17
but also because you have students versus the industry
18
and that's where the struggle comes into play all right so
19
if you are a student and most likely most of you are students
20
if you're watching my channel
21
which by the way teaches everything about fashion design about the industry itself with how-to's demonstrations
22
and also interviews so for you for liking what you see please subscribe
23
and continue on with me and hit that Bell notification
24
so you don't miss anything all right let's get to the subject all right
25
so I actually read an article reviewing this very briefly
26
that from a person who comes from the same air as I am
27
but is actually angrier about the subject than I am
28
so it is not I can't say it it's a term
29
that we're going to dis that's going to disappear
30
because it's still relevant
31
and that's the word sloper what is a sloper okay a
32
sloper is a basic shell of the body of of the dress form of your your size
33
that you're going to be working with in your company whether it is your main size
34
or yourself without seam allowance i sell my five piece sloper set
35
on the on my website it is the basic size eight
36
which converts to a size four six garment and it It is the essential five pieces,
37
the front bodice, the back bodice,
38
the back skirt, the front skirt, and the basic sleeve.
39
Those five essential pieces with a tiny bit of ease.
40
No design at all.
41
Nothing interesting about it, just the shell of a bodice and a basic skirt with a sleeve.
42
Without seam allowance is defined as a sloper guys.
43
As soon as you take these five pieces and you add seam allowance to it,
44
it becomes a pattern.
45
I'll say it again as soon as you add seam allowance to this block it then becomes a pattern
46
so then you hear the word sloper
47
and block as far as I'm concerned they are the same thing
48
but if you say pattern block pattern means seam allowance it means it could be either the basic shapes
49
or it could be a design from your company.
50
Let me elaborate further.
51
Let's go further into it.
52
Let me show you that on the flat.
53
Okay just to reiterate this is your basic sloper five-piece sloper set which is the front bodice,
54
the back bodice, front skirt,
55
back skirt and basic sleeve without seam allowance right.
56
This is what fashion design students and startup companies use to make initial designs
57
and do some practicing on dart manipulation and all of
58
that once you take these five pieces
59
and you add seam allowance to it it then becomes this is the same thing it's been traced over
60
and seam allowance has been added to this it becomes a pattern either a sloper pattern or a block pattern.
61
It is still just the basic elements of the body.
62
It is, there's no design elements in this.
63
There's no different extra ease on this.
64
This is just your basic body,
65
as if you had your dress form or your mannequin in a flat form if that makes sense.
66
This is also considered a sloper.
67
This is the torso sloper that I also sell on my website
68
which is using the front bodice and the skirt
69
and combining it to make what would be called a torso sloper
70
which is used for dresses and blouses and jackets and dress
71
and things like that and I also have my special sleeve
72
that you can purchase this set on my website okay let's
73
talk about what a pattern block is designers have patterns they either are in oak tag like this
74
or they're in pattern making paper this is the way I'm storing my designs these days
75
and I also have certain designs after a company has become established
76
and you have some patterns or designs
77
that are you know are a really good fit they sold
78
well people love them you tend to want to use those as blocks
79
so to speak to make other designs because you know that
80
that body the essential body is good if
81
that makes sense just to give you an idea this is
82
one of my knit dresses that's super super popular it was one of my best shapes in dresses for knit
83
and this was one of my best shape in woven
84
so I would tend to use this on occasion I'm going to open this pattern up a little bit here
85
and you can and I'm going to take one of these pieces out
86
and this is just one of the pattern pieces this is actually the front part of this dress right
87
and this has seam allowance so you can still make new designs with a pattern that has seam allowance.
88
In fact, that's how you're going to see it in the industry.
89
Very rarely you want to see just a sloper without seam allowance.
90
So what happens is sometimes something
91
that is a really good pattern such as this where I'm going to probably use it a lot to make different designs,
92
I will then trace it over in this OTAG hard cardboard pattern paper.
93
And what's interesting is I won't add the actual design elements like that.
94
I'm just going to keep it plain because I want to use this body as a pattern block.
95
It is now a design.
96
It has essential ease for the actual design and it has some style lines to it.
97
It does have seam allowance and it's something
98
that I can then put on pattern making paper like I have here just brown paper
99
and let's say I wanted to do something unusual to it
100
and maybe make it wider on on the hem I
101
can then use this put it down trace around it
102
and make some changes I can even do some flare to it by just moving it like
103
that and then I have just changed the design and made it even more of a flared dress.
104
And just simple changes like that, or more complicated changes.
105
But once you get a pattern that you really,
106
really like, or a company really,
107
really likes, and you have all the pieces here in a particular size,
108
hopefully your sample size, this one has been done in extra small,
109
small, medium, and large, so I would probably either use the small or extra small,
110
depending upon what I want to use for my base pattern,
111
and go ahead and make new designs with this pattern,
112
and then have what's called design blocks or pattern blocks.
113
I hope that makes sense.
114
This is just a quick study,
115
and this terminology is really, really important, guys.
116
I want you to understand the terminology as a fashion design student.
117
You're going to have to know the word sloper.
118
You're going to have to know the word block,
119
but in the industry, they really don't use it much because
120
that is just tools of how to learn to be a fashion designer,
121
as well as making very, very basic patterns.
122
And when you're starting to work in an industry,
123
you're going to have already established patterns and they will be beyond just the basic sloper,
124
if that makes sense.
125
Okay, I hope you liked this video.
126
Give it a thumbs up.
127
Please share it with your friends,
128
all the people who are struggling with this terminology,
129
and I'll see you next time.
130
Thank you, bye-bye.

Informazioni su Questa Lezione

In questa lezione, impariamo la distinzione tra sloper, block e pattern block nel contesto del design della moda. Attraverso la pratica del shadow speaking, gli studenti esploreranno il lessico specifico utilizzato nell'industria della moda, focalizzandosi su come queste terminologie si relazionano tra loro. Questa lezione è particolarmente utile per gli aspiranti designer che desiderano approfondire le loro conoscenze e migliorare le loro abilità linguistiche tramite l’ascolto attivo e la ripetizione.

Vocabolario Chiave e Frasi

  • Sloper: la base della forma del corpo, utilizzata per la creazione di modelli senza margini di cucitura.
  • Block: termine utilizzato in modo intercambiabile con sloper, si riferisce alla forma-base.
  • Pattern Block: una forma che include margini di cucitura, che possono essere utilizzati per creare vestiti.

Consigli per la Pratica

Per migliorare le tue abilità nel shadow speak, inizia ascoltando attentamente la pronuncia e il ritmo della presentazione. Poiché il video tratta di argomenti tecnici, è fondamentale concentrarsi non solo sul significato delle parole, ma anche su come vengono pronunciate e sul loro contesto. Prova a ripetere le frasi immediatamente dopo averle ascoltate, mantenendo il tempo e il tono del video. Questo approccio ti aiuterà a sviluppare una pronuncia più naturale e fluente.

Inoltre, considera di prendere appunti sul lessico chiave che incontri e prova a usarli in frasi nei tuoi esercizi quotidiani. Non dimenticare di usare il sito di shadowing per arricchire ulteriormente la tua esperienza di apprendimento. La ripetizione e la pratica costante sono essenziali per dominare il linguaggio tecnico del design della moda e migliorare le tue capacità di shadow speech.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
