Cut (clothing)

Cut is a way we describe how clothes are made to look and fit nicely on our bodies. Imagine a big piece of cloth that needs to be made into a shirt or pants. The people who make the clothes will use special scissors to cut the cloth into the right shapes and sizes. They cut the fabric based on how they want the clothes to look and how they want them to fit you. For example, they might cut extra fabric in some places to make the clothes feel more comfortable, or they might cut the fabric really close to your body to make the clothes look more sleek and modern. The way clothes are cut can affect how they look, how they fit, and how we feel when we wear them.
