I am making Vogue 7488, view C, which is a men's formal vest to wear with a tux. The notions list "one cummerbund assembly (two sliders and one buckle)". Can anyone tell me what those might be, and where I could find them? *************** View C...not B? View C has a waistcoat with a full back. I imagine you'll only need one buckle for the back of the waistcoat, which usually has 2 narrow straps of the back lining fabric attached at each side seam at the waist level and running across the back waist, closing with a buckle of some kind so it is adjustable. It's to synch in the waist tight. There are typical small buckles with tongues....for which you must put eyelets on the opposite strap, or a slider type buckle that does not require eyelets. These are usually on the notion wall with the buttons. If you cannot find a buckle, two small D (or O) rings will work (Both on one strap....the opposite strap goes thru both rings and then back thru one) or you can make 2 or 3 inch wide straps a couple of inches shorter than the back waist measurement of the lining, with 2 or 3 eyelets or small button holes down each end and lace them together with some sort of tie ( ribbon, leather thong, short shoe lace) in CB back to synch in the waist. View B looks like it requires a buckle for the neck and one or two for the waist...since it has no full back. **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
