ABSTRACT
In most circumstances (except one-piece knitted garments), garments are assembled from several components. This is essential to establish profile/ shape to the garments, to overcome the constraints of fabric width. The cutting is the process of reproduction of shape of pattern pieces in the fabric during the production of garments. The cut fabric panels are then joined using a series of stitches and seams to produce three-dimensional garments (Aldrich 2002a).
