Help. Want to reduce this corset....
Two years ago and about 10 - 15 lbs ago, I made the above corset. I've got the makings now for three to four more corsets that I want to make but in putting on the corset I find that my shelf (bust) swims in the corset (except when I sit down), that there is no reduction in my waistline and that my hips swim somewhat.
My measurements now are 46, 40, 40. If I could I would like to get down to at least a 36 waist (much smaller and I think it would be uncomfortable) plus I want to bring the dore pattern up over the breast just a bit. So, should I just take the pattern that I used last time and reduce it by about a quarter of an inch on each panel
The above is a picture from our wedding in August of last year wearing said corset. I feel like it's long enough just not "tight" enough around but this was the first one I'd made for myself so actually, it's not too bad for a first try....
