Where does #1664 slacks & skirt sit in terms of the waist?
In response to LindaLouise's question:
Threads hasn't tested this pattern, so I can't say for sure. However, I looked at the pattern pieces and the pattern's evelope and instructions carefully, and my best guess is that the waist in #1664 falls at the actual waist.
