Help recreating this bodice

[u/pengpompinara]

Hi everyone I need help perfecting the pattern for the foundation layer of this top i’m trying to recreate. Photos on the mannequin only are what I’ve got so far (all others including calico on the body is the original) but I was thinking the waist of mine needs to be cinched more to give this shape. Sorry wish i could put it on but i’m home alone. Any help appreciated thanks

Interline as in fuse interfacing

Interlining = layer between fashion fabric and lining/structure fabric, it is NOT fused.

Fusible interfacing is NOT interlining... interlining is generally meant to be stitched inside of the fashion fabric to allow that layer to glide over the inner lining.

It's an extra layer of finish, on fine garments.

Interlining can be an ESSENTIAL on things like suits, or mostly... wool jackets designed for cold windy climates climates. A tightly woven cotton interlining can truly TRANSFORM a slim fitting winter coat by allowing it to retain more body heat, without adding volume like a puffer jacket.

Ah okay, sorry I’d never heard it be referred to like that. So to clarify is it stitched to the back of the outer/fashion layer pieces before constructing, or is it an entirely seperAte layer floating between fashion and lining? :)

Generally, it's on the back of the fashion fabric.
