Waist bow shirt

Let's draft together the pattern of this shirt.

Start from a raglan block with darts.

You can learn our method for drafting perfectly made to measure basic blocks (contoured ones, and the ones with wearing ease) and for fitting them in our basic blocks course/module 1.

Step 1

Draw the waistband on both front and back raising and lowering 5-7cm from the waistline, then draw the bodice line a couple of cm longer then the waistband line to get that round effect on the side seam.

Step 2

Get the back bodice and trace the waistband (marked with red lines) including the dart.

Trace also the back bodice making it straight from the armpit down, and not considering the dart volume.

The bodice will be slightly gathered into the waistband.

Step 3

Cut through the waistband dart and close it.

Copy the new shape.
