(Pockets and pleat)
I did a muslin and had to do a few adjustments;
1.5" FBA, 2" upper arm adjustment, 1" broad back adjustment, 3/4" forward shoulder adjustment and took some out of the front of the armscye.
I wanted it to have a fairly exaggerated waist so I took it in at the waist and widened the hips as well.
I've still got some bunching at the back of the armscye, I don't want to take too much out in case it restricts arm movement so I suppose I'll just live with it? If anyone knows how to fix it please tell me!
I'm a bit worried I should have widened the arms more too, I wanted to cut the under sleeve on the bias but ran way too short on fabric, one of the facing pieces I had to join but it shouldn't be noticeable *fingers crossed*
I'm following the version A, so the couture tailoring method and I'm using a silk tweed I got from fabric.com. Strangely I found horsehair canvas at Spotlight of all places and the lining is just sunsilky lining in a mauvey colour out of the stash
