Why We Add Fabric to Body Measurements When creating garments like jackets or trousers, we begin with precise body measurements. However, cutting fabric exactly to these dimensions would result in a restrictive, uncomfortable fit that hinders movement. To create a well-fitting garment that not only looks good but also feels comfortable, we add what’s known as “ease”—extra fabric that accounts for natural body movement, layering, and the desired garment style. The process of adding ease involves strategically increasing specific areas of the garment pattern, such as the chest, waist, hips, and thighs, to ensure flexibility and balance. By customizing the amount of ease based on the garment type (e.g., jackets, shirts, or trousers) and intended fit (slim, regular, or relaxed), we transform flat fabric into a three-dimensional piece that follows the contours of the body while allowing freedom of movement.
