T h e d r aped top to the evening gown would probably be attached to the closely fitted foundation top. Make the foundation first and then trace off the portion of the pattern which will be draped. Pin in the darts and slash the shift control into gathers and add more fullness as desired. In a later problem you will again study the method for shaping darts to produce a form fitting garment. As is shown here, the "rib" measurement is taken to determine just how much the basic dart may be increased to insure a perfect fit.
