Why Your Garments Don’t Feel Right (Even When the Measurements Are Correct)

Predicting Fit Problems Before You Sew
Stina Smith is a fashion designer and sewing educator specializing in fit and pattern adjustments for real bodies. She teaches sewing and design workshops across Norway and London, UK, helping sewists understand not only how to sew garments, but how garments actually behave on the body.
Her teaching focuses on clarity, wearability, and reducing frustration in the fitting process. Rather than relying only on measurements, she helps students learn how to observe movement, balance, and garment behavior to anticipate fit issues before sewing.
Through her classes and online teaching, Stina aims to make pattern making more approachable and less intimidating for beginner and intermediate sewists.
