When I pleat to the sett, I make a minor tuck in the waistband at the front apron edge to match the sett in the pleats. Of course, given my measurements, I only have tapers at the apron edges. I think my method might work for someone who had to taper more if the tuck was made at the last taper on the front apron side.
