I also add another diagram, IIB, which illustrates the erect and slender
form—hollow back—full breast—square shoulders—forms which are mostly hard
to fit. It is on the same square as Dia. II and IIa, but the difference
is shown between the back and the side piece. The height of back is 14¾
and the front and back is even at the neck for the square shoulder.
Now, it will be seen how closely Dia. II, IIa and IIB are connected, and
yet how far they are from fitting the same form. With the help of these
three diagrams it seems to me any cutter should have easy sailing in
fitting his customers. There is the tall, slim person to be fitted by
Dia. II and IIB, and the short form and the full waist by Dia. IIa, and
any of the other abnormal conditions here shown by the three diagrams,
may be taken from one of them and placed on the other. Often, the
abnormal conditions may be just contrary to the illustration.
