Add a curved waistband for a better fit or to turn a dress into a skirt.\r\nCurved waistbands are the way to go if you prefer your garments to sit at a point lower than your natural waist. They are also a godsend for us curvy girls who just have a steep hill to cover. (Yeah I'm talking about my big round hips) The added shaping in the side seams area means the band will sit flush against your body, instead of standing out the way a straight waistband would. Of course drafting a curved waistband takes several more steps then a drawing a straight rectangle, so some pattern makers will just take the easy way out. Or if you're like me, you might be hacking a pattern into a new garment and need to create your own waistband. Sample garment is Bluegingerdoll's Odette dress, sewn in quilting cotton.
