This is a modern 14-panel over-bust pattern with a sweetheart neckline and a beautiful hour-glass curve to accentuate your waist. Sizes (UK) 8 -20 (US 4 - 16). There is an option to add alternative panels 1-3 for bust sizes UK A - F (PLUS ALTERNATIVE HIP SECTIONS (+2'' AND +4''ON STANDARD SIZES)
INCLUDES A 25 PAGE DOCUMENT OF CORSET CONSTRUCTION NOTES!
Note – a 2’’ lacing gap is factored into this pattern. If you would prefer your corset to close at the back, add 1’’ (25.4mm) to the edge of each panel 7 (the actual measurements will therefore be 2'' smaller than those detailed in the picture above).
The corset length measures 39cm at the centre front and 41cm at the back. There is a reduction of 3'' at the waist applied to the standard sizes. Instructions are given to decrease or increase the vertical measurement from waist to under-bust to ensure the bust sits at the correct position.
This pattern is drafted in AutoCAD and available as an instant download - you will need to print out on size letter (A) or A4 paper, making sure 'actual size' and 'centre the print' is ticked in your print dialogue box. If using Adobe reader as your previewer you will be able to hide layers and therefore print only the sizelines you require.
It is recommended that you make a toile to the nearest underbust measurement – at this stage you can assess the most suitable bust section and adjust the hip and waist to fit before transferring these amendments to your pattern to ensure a perfect fitting corset.
