for cutting them. This is simple in construction and gives good results. The skirt has front and side gores with hip-fitting darts in them, a back breadth which may be folded or gathered at the waistband.

All dress skirts must first have this shape upon which the plaits, or folds, or flounces are fastened or shaped. The overskirt is a separate affair.

In producing the skirt by this System, first draw the line 0-B. From B to C is the

front length of skirt. Draw line across to E. From C to D go up in every size three-quarters of an inch, where another line is drawn over to F. Now we use the waist measure to get all the points. From C to E is one-quarter of the waist, equal to six inches on a waist of twenty-four inches. From E to F is also one-quarter of the waist. From F measure up to the first line at point H the whole waist, twenty-four inches, which gives H. Draw the line from H through F to the bottom of skirt at S.
