Do "a pioneering concept" and "crudely made" make sense? Can I say, "Fashion designers lead the fashion trend with their pioneering concepts"? And which words should I use to describe a piece of garment that is "crudely made" by an inexperienced individual who is trying to make clothes? Thank you for your input.

What does it mean by "waist in proportion"? As asked in the title, what does it mean by "waist in proportion"? Does it mean that someone has a body of the same length of upper and lower body? Thank you in advance! P.S. the whole sentence is this, "Collect and label pictures of each of the body proportion possibilities as shown on the chart on p.42 (e.g., a body with 8 head lengths, a body that measures more than 8 head lengths, less than 8 head lengths, waist in proportion, short-waistedness)."
