I just came across your tutorial today and I must tell you that you're the BEST. I've watched quite a lot but none is as professional as yours. Thanks.
Thank you Cilla. I have been following your pattern drafting ever since I discovered you on you tube. My question is in my practice some clients measurements for the waist and bust are almost the same. May be only one inch difference where by the bust is bigger. Do i still put a dart or what is the best approach?
Thank you so much for your detailed explanation. Please, how did you match up the back and front side seam your back waist length was 17, and your front 18? what did you do with the 1-inch difference? Thank you.
The one 1”is among the excess on the armhole. Which I took out as dart Another way to do it is to add the difference between your front and back waist length to the front side seam of the front bodice. As mine is 1” difference adding it to my side seam will make it 8½. So this means I will have 1” dart at the side seam then the extra dart on the front armhole won’t be as much as 2¹/₄ as I had here
You mean my shoulder length which is 5¹/₄ + ½ “ for the shoulder dart so that’s 5¾ You would have to check my tutorial on measurements to understand that part
Nape to waist is distance from Center back neck at the prominent bone behind your neck to Center waist . Back waist length : highest point of your shoulder just by the side of your neck straight down to your waist The difference between the nape to waist and BWL is usually ¾” to 1”
It help to accentuate the true contour of the back especially around the across back area and also gives the best fit . because of the curve of the shoulder blade you might experience a little gapping around the back armhole without the dart

Thanks for the video, I will like to know how you achieved the 5 3/4" (5 and quarter) measurement to get the neck width

What is the deference between "back waist" measurement and "nape waist" measurement? Where does the "back waist" start from?
Nape to waist is distance from Center back neck at the prominent bone behind your neck to Center waist .
Back waist length : highest point of your shoulder just by the side of your neck straight down to your waist
The difference between the nape to waist and BWL is usually ¾” to 1”

What’s the effect of the shoulder dart ma?
It help to accentuate the true contour of the back especially around the across back area and also gives the best fit .
because of the curve of the shoulder blade you might experience a little gapping around the back armhole without the dart

So why the front is so taller
It’s is majorly because of the bust protrusion and the short back length
