This form being much increased in front, must have more ease on the loweredge of the waist. The black lines show where this is needed. Therefore, at C, A and B morespring is added to meet the increase of the form in front. It will be noticed the second of these diagrams has already been enlarged bythe same process as that shown on diagram C, but the additional spring addedto the darts and to the front is put on to cover the increased size over theabdomen so generally found on stout ladies. This increase is carried down over the hips on jackets or long garments, butbelow, the lines are curved but slightly. THE KEYSTONE SYSTEM FOR LADIES GARMENTS. 41.
