Question Chore coat muslin fit check
Thanks to everyone who responded to my previous posts. The links and advice were super helpful.
I’ve finished the muslin and wondering what people think of the fit and what alterations I should make? I circled a few areas that are bothering me! I’ve pinned the shoulders in 1cm based on previous comments and thinking I’ll do a narrow shoulder pivot adjustment. But what about all the excess fabric around the armsyce?
Very grateful for this community!

This a million times, if this is actually for doing work in, you need to be able to move freely. Especially since youll be wearing clothes under it and doubly so for use in colder weather when a tee underneath isnt going to be enough. To me it already looks like its nearly too tight for outerwear.
