The transition from hip to leg in pant patterns is located about 2/3 of the hip depth. If this is not the widest part of your hip, pants patterns might be to loose or to tight. In this case, measure your hip additionally at this line, about 2/3 from the hip Depth.

Please note:

A good measurement is the prerequisite for a good fitting pattern. So please take your time and take the measurements in well-fitting underwear and with a relaxed but upright posture. Please only enter body measurements and no desired finished measurements. The pattern maker adds some ease anyway. Your measurements are neither saved nor evaluated on the server. Please note that the pattern maker cannot take into account malpositions such as a swayback, pelvic misalignment or similar physical changes. At the moment it is also not possible to create patterns if the waist size is larger than the chest size.
