What are the lines and cuts in the drawing called?

Verticals in a skirt, blouse and dress are represented by the middle lines of the back and front.

Moreover, the latter is called the half-skid line (see also the video on taking measurements at the end of the article).

The straight bases of the skirt and dress have a vertical side seam.

In trousers - a line of ironing.

In the vast majority of cases, when cutting, these verticals should be parallel to the edge, that is, along the longitudinal thread.

The horizontal lines of the back: the original (uppermost), armhole level lines (or barrel heights), waist, hips and bottom.

Shelf horizontals: armhole height lines, chest height, waist, hips and bottom.

In some cases, the horizontal lines of the waist, hips and bottom are extended from the drawing of the back and a shelf is built on them.

Breast darts also have different names.

So, the one coming out of the side seam is called the side seam, and the one coming out of the shoulder seam is called the chest.

There are also armhole tucks - this is a very convenient design and is suitable for most types of figures.

Less commonly used chest tuck from the neck.

Even less often for a small chest - a semi-relief tuck from the side seam.

The cut adjacent to the neck will be called the neck in the shelf pattern, and the sprout in the back.

The line of sewing in the sleeve is always an armhole.
