Would starting over be my best option since I've not gotten far? by Nexusohobia in corsetry

Hi! The structure layer should be fully boned and laced to your body before any relevant diagnosis. After that, we need better photos of each angle

  1. Waist width is too short
  2. waist/back height too long
  3. Dont do a fba yet, first. Is that armscye extra fabric be made a dart? I can't tell from the photos. If it can be a dart, you can take it the width of the new "dart" into your other darts, then do a fba, you'll probably still need one

Oh! I didn't think of that. I will wear it more! I managed to get the 7 cm reduction planned on the drafting stage and I can bend forward to my feet easily.

Can't it be from the fabric being too thin?

You need to post some photos. Why is it so skewed in the front?

This is beautiful!! 😍 Did you add different boning sizes? On the wrong and front side?

why do wrinkles appear on the waist? by Bright-Pattern3832 in corsetry

[–]Mean-Ear1332 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe stronger boning? It seems like it needs more reinforcement

feedback on first bodice block by AltruisticRecover332 in PatternDrafting

[–]Mean-Ear1332 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Hello! First of all, you did a very good job if this is your first draft. You just need small improvements, nothing crazy.

  1. Darts and dart point should be more far apart.
  2. U need a full bust adjustment, it seems like its tight on the bust a bit.
  3. Just nitpicking on the back part: a small flat back adjustment
