Hoping some of the MANY talented sewist / seamstresses on YLF are around. I know I saw Vildy posting this weekend.
So...after years of looking I finally found a dress in a deep blue-green *but* from the back I'm getting even worse issues than what this stock photos shows. Kind of like a kangaroo pouch back there.
My tailor is excellent but I generally give him direction (especially as he's more a men's suit expert).
If I keep it this dress needs to be a 10 as it will be one of my few spring/summer purchases. While yes I have tunics to toss over to funk it up it needs to be able to stand on its own -- I don't want to be thinking about caboose zone wrinkles.
Q:
Is this something taking it in on the sides will help? Darts? It fits pretty well in the front without a lot of room to spare so I don't want to jack that up and get it too tight there.
Thx in advance for any expertise you can provide!
