QST Tailoring Components (WORK in progress)

 
 

Chest Piece

Located between the outer fabric and lining, the chest piece ensures shape, structure, and a smooth drape. It is constructed from 2–3 primary layers—with the third layer usually composed of 2–3 plies. Every staggered layer is fully customizable.

 

Shoulder Pad

Shoulder pads are traditionally used to refine the natural shoulder line, creating the illusion of a broader, more square, or softly rounded silhouette.

Each pad comprises 3 or more layers, with every sandwiched layer fully customizable.

 

Sleeve Head

The sleeve head supports the shoulder, preventing fabric collapse, drooping, and sharp ridges for a clean finish.
