Creases in Clothing

Creases are an important element in clothing, adding depth and contour. Here, we look at

typical types of creases and the areas that wrinkle easily.

Types of creases

Pulled creases

A straight crease formed by the fabric being pulled in one

direction. These kinds of folds form easily around areas such as

the armholes and the sleeves when the arms are raised, under

women’s breasts and around the waist when the body is twisted.

Gathered creases

These are formed when the fabric gathers in one spot. They form

easily around the top of sleeves, around the arms and knees when

bent and on sleeves that are rolled up.

Draped creases

These creases are created when fabric is pulled down by the force

of gravity. They form on clothing where the hem and wristbands

are drawn in, such as on a sweater, as well as on clothing that has

a natural drape to it.

Hollow creases

These are a type of gathered crease that forms when the fabric

gathers in one place and part of it forms a hollow. They’re

typically found in places where the fabric gathers easily, such as

around the elbows and knees, in conjunction with gathered

creases. Adding shadow in the center gives them dimension.
