Pattern size selector: skirt governing zone · case 02
A skirt for a larger waist is cut at the hip size and will not close.
Case contract
Chart (cm) XS 80/62/86, S 86/68/92, M 92/74/98, L 100/82/106, XL 108/90/114 (bust/waist/hip). Inches convert at 2.54. A size fits a measurement when chart + 1 cm >= body; pick the smallest fitting size. top: by bust; skirt: the larger of waist size and hip size; dress: bust size and hip size, same -> that size, else "grade A to B" (bust size to hip size). No fitting size -> "out of range"; other garments -> "error: garment".
Why this case matters
Sewists choose a pattern size per body zone and grade between sizes.
