MISSES' SIZE

BACK VIEW Complete.

In order to complete the back view, it is now necessary to continue the curving of shoulders for the sleeves from 1 down to 7 and 2 down to 8. The space of curve is 7 and 8, which is about ¼ of an inch extended from the original outline of the box which always means ⅛ of the box space, which we use for sketching.

The sleeve length of this sketch is situated according to the full length of the waist, which reads to 7 and 10 and 8 and 9. The space between 7 to 10 and 8 to 9 is about ½ inch or ½ of the box space, and connect to 18 and 19 for the underarm space, which is about ½ space between the waist line and breast line and then it is necessary to make a round curve from 1 to 3 and 2 to 4. Be careful and study these curves as they are the most important part in sketching. The belt effect between 3 and 5 and 4 and 6, you will notice is about ¼ of an inch for 1 inch space of sketching.
