  Step 1

  this is how you draft your pattern.
  this is how you take your measurements.
  presumming i'm going to make an M sized dress.
  i will use the fixed size M measurements for an example
  Neck: 32. taking 32/ 6 + 0.5 = 5.8 [for neck across] and 32/6+2= 7.3 [ for neck down]

  Shoulder: 34 34/2 = 17

  Bust: 86
  Front 86/4 +2.5 = 24
  Back 86/4= 21.5

  Waist: 64
  Front 64/4+1+3 =20
  Back 64/4-1+3 = 18

  Front Waist length: 41.5
  Back Waist Length : 39

  Front width: 28 28/2=14

  Back Width 32 32/2= 16

  Pitch of Breast: 17 17/2= 8.5

  Breast Point: 24

  Armpit: 40 40/2= 20

  Hip: 92

  Front: 92/4+1= 24
  Back: 92/4+2= 25

  for a TIGHTER skirt

  Front: 92/4+1 = 24
  back: 92/4= 23 OR back 92/4-1= 22 [even tighter skirt]

  Length of skirt: 55 (this is always up to you on how long you wan your skirt to be)

  Armpit: 40
  40+3= 43
  (43-8) / 2 = 17.5

  this is the back

That is just what I was looking for. Awesome. And the funniest part is that I recognize the cloth because I used it for a skirt once!
