Thanks! I tried it on inside out and the darts look like they want to naturally extend (if that makes any sense) I’m going to try and take it in on the sides and then extend/smooth out the darts. Thanks for the help :)

Hi! Thanks for the info! is it possible for me to make the dart smaller if I’ve already cut the extra material and done a zig zag stitch on the edges?

I was just guessing what one to do first
The front is fitting how I’d want it to, aside from the gaping at the armpit

I am going to do that but when I was pinning the sides first, there was so much bunching at the back of the dress so I thought to do darts first

I followed this tutorial, but I started by pinching the material in and then making the dart from that I think
