    (Scientific Research Publishing, 2024-03-15) Bans-Akutey Mawufemor; Aboagyewaa-Ntiri Josephine; Appiah Ninette Afi
    Ghanaians now demand better products as they have difficulties with the fit of garment made by their informal dressmakers and tailors. The study aimed to determine the appropriate method for garment construction. The study focused on registered roadside dressmakers, tailors, fashion designers and fashion students in Ghana. A sample of 302 respondents was selected using multi-stage sampling technique. Questionnaire was used to gather information. The results showed that garment made with pattern fits better as compared to freehand cutting. It was concluded that garment constructed with both freehand cutting and patterns brings out the perfect fit of garment. It was recommended that Ghana National Tailors and Dressmakers Association should encourage and train their members on the use of patterns, and this would improve and manifest in the high standard on fit of garment.
