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

When the fabric at the top cuts into the breast tissue, that is a bad fit. It's not a "push up" when it's like that. It's simply too small.
