Bespoke & Made-to-Measure Generation
Move beyond standard sizing. Generate unique, custom-tailored patterns using precise individual body measurements.
Custom Fit Without Toiles or Standard Size Distortion
Standard commercial patterns are drafted for a single idealized hourglass figure and scaled with arbitrary grade rules. For the 77% of sewists and independent designers creating for diverse bodies, off-the-rack patterns require hours of manual adjustments: Full Bust Adjustments (FBA), swayback alterations, and crotch curve lengthening.
Kleiders computes every seamline from your exact biometric profile. Every dart depth, armhole circumference, and hem circumference is calculated specifically for you.
Designing for Mobility & Body Diversity
Kleiders is one of the only pattern engines with native mathematical support for adaptive silhouettes:
Higher back rise (prevents riding down), lowered front waistband, and articulated knee curves with zero back-pocket friction.
Calibrate distinct left and right dart placements for scoliosis compensation, shoulder drop variations, or post-mastectomy balance.
Seamlessly draft garments with single-sleeve constructions and tailored opposing armhole bindings for upper-limb amputees.
Key Capabilities
Parametric Vector Drafting
Every seamline, armhole, and dart recalculates mathematically from your exact measurements.
Seated & Adaptive Fits
Specialized ergonomics for wheelchair users, scoliosis balance, and single-sleeve cuts.
Client Measurement Profiles
Save multiple body profiles to grade and export any design for different clients in seconds.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Kleiders draft patterns for individual body measurements?
Unlike traditional pattern grading that scales all dimensions uniformly from a sample size 6, Kleiders uses a fully parametric vector CAD geometry engine. When you input your measurements, the system mathematically recalculates every dart angle, armhole curve, and crotch rise to ensure a custom fit without standard grading distortion.
What is adaptive fashion pattern drafting?
Adaptive fashion patterns accommodate diverse bodies and mobility aids. Kleiders includes dedicated parametric options for seated fits (higher back waistband, articulated knees, flattened rear seams for wheelchair users), asymmetric bodices, and single-sleeve drafting.
Can I use Kleiders if I have asymmetric body proportions?
Yes. In the measurement calibration settings, you can define left vs right shoulder slope, leg length discrepancies, and asymmetric bust darts. The engine outputs separate left and right pattern pieces instead of mirror halves.
How do I take my measurements for the software?
You only need 6 core body measurements to get started: High Bust, Full Bust, Natural Waist, Low Hip, Shoulder Width, and Desired Garment Length. Our measuring guide provides visual landmarks for placing your tape measure accurately.
