Cording

Cording is when a pipe, cord, or wire is sewn into material and attached to a garment. This gives the lines on the garment a 3D effect. It can also create shape and give hold to a garment. It can be used for both practical and decorative purposes in fashion design.


Cording is often used in the making of traditional Irish dancing dresses.
