Patterns on Body
A fabric design is made up of motifs. Motifs size, position
and color are important in selecting the right fabric for the body type. These
are some points which should be kept in mind while designing a garment which
have motifs –
The size of the patterns on the fabric has to be in the
harmony with body size or physique of the wearer.
Despite the right choice of
the color, the fabric with large pattern on it is not suitable for small framed
women as it will overpower her looks and body and neither for large framed body
as it will add girth to her already large frame.
Small or moderately sized patterns are good for small framed
women, and when used in overall print or directional print it will make a large
figure look appear slender.
Large and bold patterns are suitable only for tall and large
figures.
The of pattern must complement the style of the garment.

If the highlight of the garment is it’s designing and styling,
then the fabric must be selected to suit the style details.
