Two common problems emerge when purchasing or sewing stretch garments. First, some manufacturers may cut corners to offer garments at lower prices, risking unsatisfactory quality. Consumers should inspect fabric, construction, and fit before buying or sewing.
Relaxation Shrinkage in Stretch Fabrics and Fit
The text warns that seams and hems must match fabric elasticity to prevent snapping as it stretches. It explains relaxation shrinkage where fabric draws up after tension is released, altering size if cut too soon. To avoid this, try on garments before buying and let fabric relax 24 hours after purchase before cutting for home sewing.
