Drawing to Scale

A
  • 1:8 scale for adult clothing (40-inch garment circumference translates to 2.5 inches on the sketch).
  • 1:4 scale for children’s clothing.
  • For smaller elements like tabs or labels, a 1:1 scale may be used, allowing these components to be printed, cut, and tested for proportion on actual garments.
