I went back to the store and tried a medium, only to notice that it was just as clingy as the small. Dismayed, I decided to take it home anyway just to figure out what is going on. I know sizes are wacky these days, but I never take a large in anything, so I wondered if maybe it just isn't lying properly on me and if there is anything I can do about it.
Well, after getting home I realized I was just having my usual problem of gaping armholes. If I pinch off the extra armhole fabric, suddenly the clingy problem disappears. Is it worth it to alter? This was an expensive dress, especially for Zara. But it's cotton and the color is divine. Worth it? Pictures one and two are how it looks now, three and four show how it would look with the armholes taken up.
Now I wonder if I should go back to the small, though. Sigh. Why must it be so hard...
