After seeing what 'your friends are • currently •wearing, 4 and following the 'IN' designs in magazines and shop windows, you have your likes and dislikes pretty well established. Don't follow the dictates of the latest fashion, unless that fashion will _do something for you. 'What looks absolutely ravishing oil a 20 year-old could well look positively devastating on a 4Q -year-old. Look for lines acid styles, that dramatize yolk strong points, and detract from your weak ones. 'The, eye has -a tendency toollow a line, so use the lines of the pattern to take people's eyes where you, want them. Vertical lines give the illusion of tallness, and can slim a heavy figure or feature. Horizontal lines make the eye move from side to side, and makes a heavy set person appear even more. so. Horizontal lines can also be used to break up a tall thin figure, and give it more body. A full skirt falling from a fitted waistline, can fill out small hips, and give the larger waistline ...a,trimming. ��- _ A bloused:bodice:mnkes a:1`dII A bust look larger, and a 7r. makes a pointed chin more pronounced. If you have any figure -preblems _try _ to., .pick` a pattern that will either- cgysr up your problem, or focus the attention. elsewhere. Consider where you will be wearing your garment, and choose a pattern for practibility and wearability. If you already have th0 fabric, be sure to purchase a pattern that suits the fabric design, ' texture , and weight. • -.. A word to the beginning beginners. Try something simple first. Look for an tasy to make pattern, and use easy to handle, Material. Pattern sizes are based on actual body ;measurements.. The amount of ease will vary with the style and manufactt rer. Generally; your pattern size will be one or two Sizes larger than you takeJn ready to wear. Select 'your , pattern by ,bust measurement, as it , is easier to adjust the waist and hips, than the bust and shoulders. It, the bust is larger in proportion than -•• _the other measurements, - take- a chest measurement. If the ' difference between chest and bust is four inches or more, get your pattern one size smaller than the'bust measurement, , and enlarge it through the bust. The smaller a size is best, as good fit through shoulders arid 'armholes is important -and that area should be changed as little as possible to retain shape'afidfit- If only the bust is large in proportion to the rest of your body, and you' prefernot to alter the v .•bustline, buy two patterns, one by buntline, the other one size smaller. Use only the bodice' front 'of the _larger ... pattern. Inerease the darts at waistline, underarm and shoulder, so the front and b§,ck seam lines are of equal length. For skirts, buy by the waist measurement. If. you have very full hips,. buy by the hip measurement, as the waistline is • easier to alter. For pants, ' rise the - hip measurement. Always buy the same size pattern for coats, suits and m dresses. . Pepper rCunionheld ' at Seaf�rth ..
