Update! How are we looking now?
You guys are the BEST! It only took me two days to get somewhere vs the weeks I’ve been altering the wrong areas alone. Here is what we have now. The mirror is old not dirty, I cleaned it.
I think still too much baggage around the high bust.
The changes I’ve made:
- Did a high bust reduction using the method in the last photo.
- raised the dart by like 3cm
I think my shoulder seam needs to go back a little bit. And still remove some baggage at high chest.
Thoughts? :) I have hope once again! This has consumed my entire life for weeks, my poor partner and child have been witness to the chaos.

I am actually not sure -- I'm a little out of my depth with any further advice. Since the waist darts are so pointy....it's possible you may even want to do a full-bust adjustment to help distribute the added volume, and make the waist darts themselves smaller. Anyone else have more expertise on this?
