THE PRACTICAL DESIGNER

DOUBLE BREASTED VEST WITH A COLLAR.

LESSON 41.

This front is also drafted the same way as the first vest draft, only this front has a special allowance for the double breasted front. To begin this double breasted front, we first complete the single breasted front and after we increase for the double breasted, on the waist line, from Y to B is 3 inches, on the bottom from Z to A 1 1/2 inches, now cross a line from A to B up to C, this is the out side of the front, now measure the opening as usual from O to V, now cross a line from O to V down to C to reach the front and curve from O as shown on the diagram, now mark the style of the lapel on the pattern as wanted, take special notice to measure the opening for a double breasted the same way as for a single breasted.
