LADIES' ULSTERS.
Diagram 307.
Ladies' Ulsters do not bear the same relation to a jacket that the Gentleman's Overcoat does to a Lounge.
They are rather a kind of easy fitting long jacket.
Hence, it will be seen that the upper part is cut as a jacket.
There is, however, this difference. The front is receded a little from point 20½, so as to avoid the surplus material below the waist that would otherwise show itself.
A line drawn through 20½ from V would come to 21½. A mark is made back from this about ½ inch as from 21½ to 21.
The breast line being continued from 20½ through 21.
This would not be necessary if the fish was carried down to bottom of forepart, but, as a rule, they are terminated about 8 inches below waist.
The extra prominence of figure at chest as compared with below the waist necessitates this, the present fashion being to keep figure as flat as possible below waist.
