Quick update on the catsuit/stockings patterns.
I’ve updated my-pattern.cloud so that when you use a shared pattern you can now override key variables that drive the pattern, e.g. seam-allowance.
Updated instructions for exporting catsuit pattern
There are now instructions for entering your measurements for the catsuit pattern and exporting as PDF or SVG.
I hope to create some instructions soon to cover checking the pattern and adding gluing instructions.
This pattern is in beta test! It has only been used with my measurements. Please let me know if you would like me to check the resulting pattern before proceeding to use it.
Updated the previous post.
my-pattern.cloud outage
Apologies! There was an outage this week with my-pattern.cloud due to an issue with an infrastructure provider. This is now resolved.
Catsuit pattern shared

The L032 Men’s catsuit pattern (0.3) is now shared on https://my-pattern.cloud/.
Note: this pattern is currently in BETA! It needs to be tested with other people’s measurements in order to tweak some of the bezier curves. You are welcome to be a beta tester!
See Catsuit measurements guide for taking the required measurements. Please double check all measurements.
See Joining the MrDoo pattern sharing group for details on how to join my group on my-pattern.cloud.
See Customise Catsuit pattern for how to pin the shared pattern, enter your measurements, and export a PDF/SVG.
I will post some more detailed and up to date instructions when I can.
I am happy to check the result of running the pattern with your measurements before you start cutting.
Catsuit measurements guide
I’ve added some information about taking measurements for the catsuit pattern. Catsuit measurements
Measurements driven catsuit pattern
Finally progressed my measurements-driven catsuit pattern to the point where I’m happy with the results. This has been slowly refined through a number of iterations, whilst simultaneously improving the pattern sharing site.
Hopefully the pattern will work for other people’s measurements too, provided the body shape isn’t too dissimilar. There are a number of bezier control points in the pattern that may need some refinement to work nicely with other’s measurements, so it would be useful to get some example sets of measurements.
There are quite a few body measurements required, and they need to be taken very precisely. My next task is to write up some guidance for taking the measurements.
Bishop sleeve ‘Garbo’ blouse
Mrs Doo liked a latex top that she spotted on TV and she identified it as the ‘Garbo’ blouse by Syren. Could I make her something similar she asked?
It seems that this Syren top is somewhat of an icon.
Here is the my interpretation…

In my version the blouse is actually a body, and has a keyhole at the back rather than a zip.
I also created a matching skirt, using 6 panels so that the seams would follow on from the blouse, making it look like a dress rather than top and skirt.

I’ve created a walkthrough of the build for the top and skirt.
I created the pattern using Seamly 2D, using the method from ‘The Practical Guide To Patternmaking For Fashion Designers: Juniors, Misses, And Women‘ for the bodice and briefs from ‘Lingerie Design – A Complete Course‘ for the lower part, merging these patterns in a drawing tool. I still need to refine the pattern before I can share it, so that it doesn’t need any steps to be done in a drawing tool.
The Bishop sleeve was based on the image I found in Pinterest:

Halloween appliqué
Halloween dress for Mrs Doo. The skirt uses two tone latex from Yummy Gummy.
I’ve added a short guide to doing intricate appliqué using a laser cutter.
Stockings how-to
I have added a walk-through for constructing the seamed stocking pattern.
To create your own custom fit latex stockings:
- Create a custom pattern: Joining the MrDoo pattern sharing group and customise your stockings pattern. (See previous blog entries.)
- Follow the walk-through.
