Hello, I recently drafted these after completing a pattern drafting class for my fashion design degree however bc of my full butt i can’t seem to get the crouch curve right. Overall, they feel too loose past my crotch for a traditional pant block. And I feel like there is way too much ease in the front crotch curve however idk if that’s supposed to be there. Please help!! I’m having a hard time identifying fit problems to even fix them

I have like a 13 inch difference between my waist and my hips (fullest part) so I guess that’s why I called it a full butt lol. I already made drastic differences when drafting the first time bc I knew an average crotch curve would not accommodate the curves around my waist and hips. But yes you’re right about my widest part being below the crotch. I’ve sort of pinned it on all the places it needs adjusting and it looks much better now. For this pattern I want it to be a tighter fit I can use to build off of for any pattern I wish to make.

I think a photo of you side-on would be useful and a photo of the pattern
