Of course I recommend you watch the whole video, but I'm providing time stamps so you can review sections as needed.

Welcome Myriah back to the channel for a deep dive tutorial on how to drape front and back basic bodice pieces, including how to revise to different cuts and different fits, how darts work, why we drape on the grain, what a crossgrain is, all kinds of stuff. Yes, this video is long but we created this video for beginners. Hopefully, the more advanced students will still learn a few more tips and tricks they didn't know before.
