2) I'll Mock You Up
Dueling Mock-Ups...
For those outside of Costume Land, a "mock-up" is a muslin version of a potential garment that is fitted to an actor.
This is the test-run for the pattern, which will be changed after the fitting and before the garment is cut from the real fabric. On the left, featuring a muslin bodice, skirt and sleeve is the early version of this mock-up. It has a white underskirt from stock that was used in the draping process. On the right, featuring a satin bodice, is the mock-up that was used in the fitting. Note the appliqued underskirt that will be part of the final ensemble. Front and Back
The mock-up has a cartridge-pleated skirt and only one sleeve for the fitting. These cartridge-pleats were later replaced with regular, flat pleats.
