LANCER'S TUNIC
The front is finished with a plastron cut 23 from breast line at waist, and to within 1 inch of neck and shoulder points at top, F, D.
The back is rather narrower at waist and in order to get a shorter sideseam, mark in 1 inch at waist, and only suppress waist 11 at sideseam.
The back skirt is stumped, and the skirt itself is finished with a slash or pointed flap, 7 inches deep.
The skirt is made up 9 inches deep.
To find spring over seat come down 7 in front, as shown, and mark down 5 behind, and so get run of front.
There are two rows of buttons up the front, seven in each row, the Regulations stating they shall be 8 inches apart at top and 4 inches at waist. Two buttons are placed at waist behind.
The piping up sideseam forms a continuous run with the hind arm, hence the extra round given to sideseams.
The plastron has to be made up so that it can button to the right or left side, as required.
