ABSTRACT:
A garment design aid for assisting a person in providing a pattern for a garment, the design aid including a main pattern template defining a hip region of the garment and including a hip adjusting means comprising: a first member that is pivotally attached at one end to the pattern template member on one side of the hip region, has at its other end a slot-extending circumferentially of said pivotal attachment that will allow movement of said first member across said main pattern template and has a suitably curved side edge; a second member that is pivotally attached at one end to the first member intermediate the first member's ends adjacent the hip region, has a substantially outwardly extending slot transverse to the slot in said first member and has a suitably curved side edge which cooperates with the side edge of the first member to define a variable hip profile of the garment; a pin fast with the main pattern template member and extending through the slots in the first and second members such that pivoting of the first member causes the second member to pivot about its attachment to said first member and to slide along said transfer slot in a suitable manner; and a securing means for securing the first and second members in a desired configuration.
