Question

How will you calculate the length of a continuous placket?

Hint:

Measure garment opening plus seam allowance to find continuous placket length.

Answer 1

The length of a continuous placket is calculated by measuring the length of the opening on the garment where the placket will be inserted. Typically, this length includes:

The measurement of the garment opening from the neckline or collar down to the desired placket end point (usually around mid-chest or wrist, depending on garment type).
Additional allowance for seam and finishing edges, usually about 1 to 1.5 cm on each side.
Hence, \[ \text{Placket Length} = \text{Garment Opening Length} + \text{Seam Allowances} \] This ensures the placket fits well and allows easy garment wearing/removal.
