The turn-over point of the belt must have the appearance of going over the top of the belt, so do not draw this piece even with the top of the belt. The button is in the middle of the point and the diagonal sides are even.
Study the back collar. It curves up at the top, but being very deep it takes a downward curve at the bottom. Note the breaks which show that the collar is going around the neck toward the front.
In drawing the collar with the reveres make the points of the collar opposite each other, also the reveres, and the places where the collar and reveres are joined. Refer to Lessons V and VI for collars.
In drawing the shawl collar, show the thickness of the goods by not connecting the front lines with the back of the collar.
Fig. T is a very simple coat illustrating the principles of how a large coat should fit. The student is expected, however, to draw all kinds of coats, and if he keeps this lesson and all previous ones in mind, there should be no difficulty in rendering all coats satisfactorily.
