armado a retazos


Explanation:
cut-and-sew parece ser cuando cortan la tela de acuerdo a un molde y luego arman la prenda. fully fashioned es cuando toman retazos de tela destinados a otras prendas y arman una distinta.

(piezas tejidas) a la medida


Explanation:
In this case, "full-fashioned" is presented as an alternative to "cut-and-sew", which implies that the meaning is not simply "que se ajustan al cuerpo/realzan la figura o de talle elegante, bien proporcionado..." These expressions seem to indicate the process used to make the piece of clothing: either sewing together pieces of cloth (or of knitting), or doing the original knitting so that the piece is fitted to the body.
IN THE REFERENCE, SEE:
Pieza Continua – Sistema de fabricación de tejidos a la continua, presentados con anchos determinados para el corte.
Pieza Integral – Sistema de fabricación de la prenda entera y sin costuras.
Pieza Menguada – Sistema de fabricación en el que se obtienen la forma de los patrones de los diversos componentes que forman la prenda. (According to the Diccionario de la Lengua Española, "menguado, -da" refers to, among other things: "4. m. Cada punto que se reduce para dar una forma determinada a una labor de punto o ganchillo." And one translation for "full-fashioned" is "pieza menguada").
Pieza Semi-integral – Sistema de fabricación en el que se obtiene la forma y algunos complementos de tejido integrados, como por ejemplo: los bolsillos, las tapetas, los ojales, las capuchas, cuellos, etc.
(I hope this is useful!).
