78 LESSON NO. 43

JUNIORS' MODEL

BACK VIEW Complete.

In completeing the back view of juniors' model note that the back is shown in a flat position. Both sides of X, on the top line, to 12 and 13 is ¼ of the box space. Draw a line up from 12 to 15 and 13 to 14 half of the box space, which will entirely build the foundation of the neck. Now connect from 12 to 9 and 13 to 10 for both shoulders alike and note that 9 and 10 is ¼ of the box space in from the straight outlines. Then continue with a curvy line from 9 to 16 and 10 to 17 to the waistline and from 11 to 16 and 17 is full half spaces each side from 11, which gives a trifle shapy waist effect. Continue with a trifle increase of curve to the line below, which is the hip line and down the straight lines for the full length of garment from 16 to 18 and 17 to 19.

The space between line 7 and 8 is ⅛ of the total height, which is left unclothed as this is about the space showing the proper length of garment necessary for juniors' model size 15. Continue the outgrowing effect for sleeve and full round effect beginning at the shoulder point at 9 and 10 and to stop exactly on the hip line, which is 4. Make the inner curve of the sleeve somewhat curving out to follow the effect of outside sleeve curves and to stop on the hip line as shown on the diagram. Carefully note the difference between the neck and hip curve in front and back as follows: The curve at the neck for the back part from 12 to 13 is curved upwards and the same way curve the waist effect from 16 to 17.
