Basic Bodice Design: Block B (Two dart block)

The bodice of this garment has two darts: one in the side seam and one in the waist. This bodice is actually a 3-D version of the flat 2-Dart Bodice Block that is used on this website. The Blocks are named Style A & Style B to differentiate the blocks from the other Styles (Style-01 to Style-44).

Flat Block vs Technical Flat

Figure 1: On the left is the 2-Dart Block, with the darts open .  On the right is the Technical Flat of that block; a 3D representation with the darts closed.  The blocks are always shown as half the body, as the basic pattern is symmetrical.
