16, The same measurements, but different pattern & fitting

Styling: Tight fit ladies skinny.

Fabric: high stretch denim

Fitting:

As we know that the different fitting and patterns are able to be created in the same measurements, I'm happy that a example can be shared below.

Below patterns and samples are base on the same measurements below.
All mmts circmference and in cms 12
Waist @ top edge 78.0
Waist – extended * 94.0
Top Hip @ 8 cm from top edge 84.0
Lower Hip @ 18cm from top edge 91.0
Thigh @ 2.5cms below fork 53.0
Knee @ 36cm from x-fork 35.0
Calf @ 10cm below knee 34.0
Hem  26.0
Front Rise – from top edge 25.0
Back Rise – from top edge 37.5
Inside Leg 76.0

Back panel ( red lines = sample version 1, black lines = sample version 2)




Front panel ( red lines = sample version 1, black lines = sample version 2)

 The fitting of sample version 1.

The fitting of sample version 2.
compare with vresion 1, the fittings look similar.
 

 However when lay flat the samples on desk, excess fabric on back thigh on the sample version 2, see below photo.
you can check the patterns, you will find the back rise angle more slant on the sample version 2, that's why excess fabric on the sample version 2.
so we can draw the conclusion that the different patterns could be created in the same measurements, and the fitting may be very similar, however its appearance lay flat  would be very different.

15, How to correct the fitting for the bottom 8

Styling: Tight fit ladies straight cut

Fabric: Stretch heavy denim

Fitting problem

Front rise pounching, see below photo.
The reason is that the crotch width is too smaller, and front rise angle too slant.
Suggestions:
Suggested amending patterns as below
1) adjust the front rise angle more straight.
2) Scoop out the front rise hook, so that the front crotch width more wider.
3) adjust the back crotch width more wider.

The correct fitting.
See below photo, this sample has been improved base on the above suggestions.

8, Measurement problem 2: no need calf width for a flare.

Styling: Normal fit flare

Problem:

The calf width too wider, to cause the seam not smooth, see below pattern.

    XS/8   S/10   M/12   L/14
Knee - 34cm from crotch   16.8   17.5   18.3   19.1

Problems:

1) Front belly too tight.
2) Excess fabric at back thigh.
3) Back rise cut in at back thigh.
4) Leg distorted.
Suggestion:

1) The problem 1, 2 and 3, suggest revising as below patterns.


2) The problem 4, suggest revising as below patterns.
     The outside leg shape looks too straight, adjust its shape similar to body shape.



6, How to correct the fitting for the bottom 2.

Styling: Normal tight  skinny

Fabric: Stretch twill

Problem:

Front rise starring and back rise cut in at back thigh, see below photo.


 
Suggestions:

Front rise starring because the front full hip width and front thigh too tight, suggest increasing them.
Back rise cut in because back thigh width too tight, suggest increasing it.
see below amended pattern.

5, Measurement problem 1: Max top hip width for a trouser.

Styling:  Normal fit skinny


Fabric: Stretch twill

Problem:

See below size spec, top hip can not be chieved to 46cm, it should be approx 44.5cm.why?

Measurement Sizes  
Points 12 Amended spec
Waistband depth 3.3  
Waist at top edge frt and back together 38  
Top hip 8cm from top w/b - CURVED 46 44.5
Lower hip 18cm from top w/b - CURVED 48  
Thigh width at crotch  28  
Knee width at 33cm from crotch 17.5  
Calf 46cm from crotch 17  
Hem width  12  
Front rise incl waistband 26.5  
Back rise incl waistband 37.5  
Inside leg  74  

1) Waistband would be too shape/curved if keep top hip width at 46cm.
     and it looks too strange and not fit the body, see below pattern.
     however waistband shape looks OK when top hip width at 44.5cm
     



2) Why 46cm top hip to cause waistband too shape.
    The body waist line width woule be more wider if top hip width to be increased,
     and in order to correctly attach waistband into the body waist line,
     the under edge of waistband should be increased too,
     but top edge of waistband at 38cm, no change,
     so waistband would get a more shape if top hip increased,
     see and below patterns.
    




 3) Top hip at 44.5cm as below sample.



 Another option

If you really want to maintain the top hip width at 46cm, the top edge of waist width should be increased to 40.5cm, in order to keep a normal shape of waistband, see below photo.
