I’m pleased and proud to be able to introduce
a collection of patterns designed to make anyone
look more slender.
ILLUSIONS-
Patterns For Real People™
This “Ultimate” program addition to the Livingsoft line of
65 custom patterns was designed for people
with those challenges that extra weight and age bring to our REAL BODIES. (Smaller sized real
bodies will like these features as well!)
Price:
$129.00

The Fab Tunic and Fab Coat
make
over-garments look slender rather than bulky. |

What do people say
about Illusions?
|
Three basic premises are used in making these "Patterns For Real People":
-
Illusion - Keeping the garment lines as slimming as possible
-
Economy - Keeping the individual pattern pieces as narrow as possible
-
STYLE and PANACHE are the right of all Real People
ILLUSIONS offers comfortable custom fit patterns based not on a dress size but on your personal
custom size!
Also included is a new casual fit option, allowing you to reduce the underarm ease, which is so
often found in more unfitted clothing. True, adjustable Side Darts and subtle waist shaping give
the illusion of a curved waistline. The result is a column of soft, flowing fabric that invites
motion, but with a little shape – garments with a little extra comfort ease without the bulk
normally found in unfitted clothing.
New design features include pleats, godets and vents, which users can apply to a variety of blouses,
dresses, jackets, tunics and nightwear. These design features emphasize a vertical line and allow
ease where needed without adding extra width.
New patterns include extras such as stretch Raglans (from blouses to a REAL SWEATSHIRT), side panel
jackets, and unique new dress designs for women of STYLE.
Illusions includes illustrated assembly instructions and construction tips to
insure you get the best results with your new tools and features.
As the pattern designer (part of a talented team of individuals who worked on this exciting new
program), I am pleased and proud to present to you, ILLUSIONS – For Real People!
