In order to see and feel the materials better, I went shopping and tried on some different draping style garments. Soft fabric (satin, chiffon etc.) normally gives garments a soft, flowy, shiny effect. On the other hand, harder fabric (cotton etc.) creates more shape and texture. It is important to experience and take a good look at different materials in order to understand the differences between them.
I've noted down some points of material awareness before and during draping process:
- Transparency/Thickness
- Weight
- Softness/ Hardness
- Light-catch
- Stretch
- Straight of grain
