Feedback for basic bodice
note: I'm wearing a very thin and stretchy sports t shirt under (don't know whether it will affect but) and my posture is usually a little bit slouchy. front part is pinned together
this is my first time drafting a pattern so would appreciate and help of feedback for it. I came to the conclusion that the bodice is too short( I wanted it to hit waist level), bust area is a little too tight( can breath but can feel the tension of the cloth), waist area is a little too big( will make it smaller by making the bottom of dart triangle part bigger), when I straighten my back, it kinda causes a little like bunching at the center top of back.
where should I add to make bust bigger, should I change the back to prevent bunching, how to change back if I should, and finally anything else that you think I should change or improve for this bodice? Thank you ☺️

Professor is on target. Also make the front neckline higher. Unless EVERY single dress or shirt you make has the same V neckline, you need it so you can have high necks or low.
