The Practical Sketcher - p68.png

BACK VIEW OF BLOUSE

MISSES' SIZE

To begin back view, draw your ordinary outline of 4 equal boxes proportionately for misses' sizes as explained for misses' proportions. Then divide equally the space between the upper top line and the lower line, which appears at 1 and 2 and draw slant lines in for the neck from 2 to 8 and from 1 to 7, as shown on the diagram.

Connect shoulder lines from 1 to 4 and 2 to 3. 3 and 4 are ⅛ of an inch in from the straight line. Then divide on the bottom line, between the edge line and the center line on both sides half space, which makes 9 and 10 and the space between 9 and 10 is the original width of back at the waist line making the proper space for belt at the waist line. This makes it ready for continuation with the next lesson.
