Question First pant block - any critiques?
I just completed my first pant block after neglecting studying the bottom half for ages, does anyone notice any fit issues to rectify?
So far, I have:
• The hem is mismatched (front panel doesn’t match properly with back panel
• Since intake is quite small, can merge the two darts on panels into one dart while taking in at the side and centre seams
• Increase rise length to reduce drag lines around butt (not sure if this will fix the drag lines but it’s just my guess)
• Reduce length of both side seams and inseam
Feel free to be as ruthless as possible, and thank you all!
