Lesson 15 : Fitting

Hollow back

 

The skirt has a horizontal fold just below the waist which is caused by the waistline being insufficiently hollowed.

Pin the fold at the centre back, tapering to nothing at the sides. Lower the centre back waistline of the pattern by the width of the fold and curve to the original side waist.

This fault may also be found at the front of a skirt and the same method would be caused to alter the front pattern.
