Ok. So I'm making different tops and bottoms of outfits I'm designing...and was wondering if there are standard measurements for making darts??? I work with all spandex, so it certainly doesn't have to be exact, but if I put a "one size" on an A cup and a C cup it's going to look different. I only need the type of darts that come from the bottom up (as if there's an empire waist, rather than coming from the bottom of the armpit) since 99% of my items are crop tops. I have tried looking around the web to see if there's some sort of chart where if it's a C cup you make your wedge x amount of inches wide and your seam is x amount of inches long from base to tip. Or is there any way I can find out what the measurements were for my favorite RTW bikini top without taking it apart!? Thanks for any help -A |

Oops!! Sorry, just realized this should've gone in the "Pattern Drafting" forum.
