A mid-1960s version made out of mul- tiple layers of black fusible interfacing, bias to straight grains. To prepare the Hip Expander, use black or white ma- terial. After all sections for a complete Hip Expander have been cut, put small grommets where the waistline and vertical seamlines intersect on each side of a section. To complete it, join the sections with envelope pins. The Skirt Expander is just an extension of the Hip Expander to floor length, as seen in the photograph on the following page.
