CREATIVE PATTERN CUTTING EXPERIMENTATIONS UNDER PROJECTION OF SCAMPER TECHNIQUE
CREATIVE PATTERN CUTTING EXPERIMENTATIONS UNDER PROJECTION OF SCAMPER TECHNIQUE

Summary/Abstract: While designers are converting their ideas into dress forms, they develop new and creative design solving techniques and pattern cutting methods. Creative pattern cutting based on draping technique is a process in which both design and technique go well synchronized and is also a very helpful way to improve design problem solving skills by fresh ideas. This technique contains implementations that allow to be formed on the body form instead of being sketched on the paper. The creative pattern cutting method allows combining the design quality of haute couture with the production technology of ready to wear, thus, more creative designs can be carried out more economically. The main focus of this study is to combine SCAMPER technique, which is one of the creative problem solving techniques, with creative pattern cutting which is based on draping method without sketching. A capsule collection consisting of fifteen outfits is created by using SCAMPER technique and draping method. Selected three models from this capsule collection is presented with all details. The study shows that the combination of the SCAMPER technique with draping method is useful to solve design problems. We recommend professional and amateur designers and scholars to use this combination in their problem solving processes.
