pin the corners of b and c to a as shown in order to create a good neckline shape. you can guestimate the distance you want it to be. play with it and see what you like.
this will create the back of the neckine to go along with the front.

gather the tops of the armholes or fold them depending on the look you want. make sure that they are even and then sew them together as shown.
now is the time to hem the back of the neckline.

I've included a pic of it without the belt as well as two different belts i've used with it.
