In this video Pati fits a fitted style as well as a pleated trouser—a style that comes and goes and changes mainly in the amount of ease and number of pleats incorporated into the design. Even if you aren’t fitting a trouser, you will learn a lot watching this lesson.

Pati fits herself to show you that you can too. You will learn to tissue-fit a pant pattern, alter it, and do the final fitting in fabric.

After fitting thousands of women in gingham pants, Pati Palmer experimented with using the tissue paper pattern instead. She found that if you reinforced the crotch with tape, you protect the pattern. When her students tried the tissue on one half of their body, she found that for the first time she could see what was going on in the crotch area. Fitting became dramatically easier.

Over many years Pati refined the method and the alterations. Then after 20 years of hands-on tissue-fitting, she came up with a fitting order that reduced confusion and improved accuracy. Print out the handout we provide and follow it when fitting any pant.
