Help!
Fellow costumers, please help me out... I recieved the pattern I ordered from the US today. But ah, the sizing is very different O.O My actual size is bust 33 & hip 35 (inches).
The hip size is much bigger than the bust size, by 10 inches for one size! If I try to match my bust size, the hip size is about 8 inches too wide. If I go for the smallest size 40 inch hip, which is still too big, then I end up with a 30 inch bust that will not fit.
Which should I go for? The pattern is a dress so it would not have to be as tight around my hips as trousers, but I can't imagine 8 extra inches is going to look like it should, since it looks fitted.
Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you are my only hope ! ^__~
