If I don't want to do the 50 odd measurements, which other measurement after using the wizard and inputting waist, hips, bust, bra size and cup size and inseam and height, would be the most important to "almost" customize a bathing suit? Would you go with the waist to floor along with center back length?

A bathing suit is the single most closely fitted garment we produce requiring negative ease which stretches to fit.

The bust depth is critical along with high bust and floor to waist,floor to hip and crotch measurements if you are long ro short waisted versus average measurements.


So measurements for this garment are more critical than any thing looser.

The stretch factor of the fabrics used for both the suit and the lining need to be entered.

I'm sorry Kaaren. I had already assumed that my ease factor had been added. I figured that the waist position was next in line in importance. Thanks. (Just trying to tweak the patterns just a little bit more without being really customized)
