Yes, you would need to use both side dart and waist dart combo or a classic princess or armhole princess. I actually combined both waist and bust darts by rotating the excess of the waist dart into the bust dart, not realizing that it would change the overall fit. The illustrations in my patternmaking book are misleading. <br /><br />The next variation(s) will have a waist/side bust dart combo as I re-work the patter I made.

This i so fab, I reminds me of the dresses that Valentino did with the combined scalloped edging and mesh inserts along the arms and bust line. i love the matching trim too! i had planned to make a skirt once with a scalloped edge but i never got around to it so i have no tips! <br />Will you need to put a dart in the front above the waist line do you think? Im not sure if your aiming for a tight bodice, but that would help?

Sometimes, you just have to finish it rather than make it 100% perfect. :) Manic Pophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10047847492970002741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-244151986320620019.post-51497866618903599452013-09-24T20:33:32.530-05:002013-09-24T20:33:32.530-05:00I love the colors!
