Creating the Bust Bridge
9
The bust bridge keeps draped fabric from fitting flat between the
breasts, and should not be used when draping bras, swimsuits, or other styles
that define each breast separately. Make the bust bridge from muslin folded and
pressed into a ½" strip with all raw edges enclosed.
10
Pin tightly from bust point to bust point with pins at the edges of the
muslin to hold it flat and taunt.
11
Pin the ends of the muslin strip about two inches beyond the side seam.
12
Mark the centerline on the bust bridge.
