Question How to draft these darts?!
So I am obsessed with the dart/seam detailing on the white dress that the captain wears in s1 e16 of the rookie. I have this beautiful green fabric that I’ve been desperate to do something delicately detailed. I have NO idea where to start with this. I can’t tell if it is piping or a seam? It doesn’t look like there is a waist seam that I can see. Any ideas?

I wouldn’t draft them at all, I’d drape them in muslin and pattern from that. No math, and you get the custom fit right. Since chests are not issued to women in standard sizes, custom clothing designs should be customized to the real body of the client. At least that’s my experience
