English term or phrase: tuck
Aus einem Buch für angehende Modedesigner. Hier werden verschiedene Design- und Kleidungselemente beschrieben:

Tucks: Small pleats, such as pin tucks, which are small series of parallel folds in fabric that are often secured with stitching.

Weiter oben kommen auch "darts" vor, was ich mit "Abnäher" übersetzt habe: Darts are small V-shaped tucks or folds in fabric used to create depth gradation and to conform fabric to the body. Often used in woven or stiff fabrics. Darts balance the drop or difference in width between different body parts. Example: waist darts make a rectangular piece of fabric tighter around the waist while simultaneously creating volume in the bust area.

Danke im Voraus!

Asker: Danke, Wendy, aber ich bräuchte es doch etwas genauer. Mein Text spricht auch noch von "pleats" und "folds", die ebenfalls als "Falte" übersetzt werden könnten.

Asker: Hallo Gudrun! Vielen Dank für die Antwort! Ich finde aber bereits "pin tuck" als Biese. "Tuck" müsste also ein Oberbegriff zur Biese sein.
