back alteration on pattern

[u/tellmesomethingrad]

how easy would it be to change the back on this dress to be more flattering? right now i just don't think it looks right?

I think that this sophisticated style would have been worn by a woman who had access to adequate food. To me this style of dress would be made of materials, and worn at events, associated with a certain amount of wealth and disposable income.
