i’m 100% convinced that women’s clothes aren’t designed to be flattering on anyone, they’re only supposed to look good on hangers.

Women's clothes are designed to be flattering on exactly one person (most commonly someone weighing 100lbs or less, with a 24 inch waist and a bust and butt to match). Then the pattern is scaled into different pre set sizes and is expected to look good on every single body type-which is, of course, ridiculous.

It took me forever to figure out that I am petite from the waist up, and regular from the waist down. I learned a few years ago that I can solve most wardrobe problems by taking up the shoulders (pinch up one inch and sew, shortening the strap by 2 total inches). I'm 45 now and have been struggling with fitting issues since I hit puberty. I always blamed my curvy top half, but nope! It's more a problem of being short-waisted.

I like Morgan's use of the white satin. It provides a nice contrast to the black dress while maintaining the visual impact of the deep v plunge of the neckline, which is very flattering. The use of black satin would not look as flattering and would make her neckline appear shorter.

I love that project a lot because this is actually a nice way to make a bust cover that isn't just sitting behind the dress with an awkward shape. It's cute, it looks like it's part of the dress, it's nicely done, it has volume and texture, just perfect. One thing though about the way you attached it. Attaching it to your bra, with pins like you did, or sewing it, is a great thing because then you can wear that bra with another dress who has the same problem, it makes it into a cute bra, and it also means your dress stays intact. I personally would sew it by hand with a running backstitch or a simple running stitch to the edge of the dress into the hem (to make it invisible), or I would attached it with safety pins, so that I have the cover attached to the dress, but not in a way that doesn't allow me to take it off easily in 5 minutes if I need to (for example to sell the dress, or to wear it with another coloured cover).

Usually I take a look at the construction and see if there's a way I can modify the V to close higher, but sometimes the shirt/dress just wont play nice, and this is a great alternative!

I've never really found a slip or top that worked that way for me. Either it was visible in the back or the sides, it made a strange combinations of lines/angles with the dress in the front, or the colour or material just didn't match well enough. I've thought about sewing something onto the dress, but that probably wouldn't turn out great (it would be difficult to hide the stitches well enough, for example), so the idea to sew it onto the bra seems like the perfect solution.

I was envious :D and I might have looked a bit creepy if she noticed me eying her bust. I bought a nice "faux wrap" dress on the internet from another country and when it came I found out it wasn't "faux" enough and that I even might have bought one size larger than necessary. But I liked the dress so I bought a new bra just for this dress, but I always feel self conscious because this bra doesn't offer as much support as any other bra I have.

Ahh. That's an interesting idea. Thank you. I HATE HATE HATE low necklines. I'm the type who would be quite happy if the high necks of history would return. . . .Yeah. Ok. Maybe not THAT high. lol We don't like to feel choked, either. But 'crew necks' are definitely my preferred go-to (this quite possibly is the result of living somewhere where winter lasts 6 months of the year. And I'm not one who likes a cold chest, thank you. Though, I also don't like turtle-necks, so yeah, I dunno), so putting on something fancier that suddenly takes a plunge. . .eh. . .no. I also have a problem that the usual 'tank top' or 'camisole' doesn't quite fit me either and usually ends up being also way-to-low on me for some reason. (Better if it has adjustable straps, but most of them don't) I've also used 'dickies' (that is the worst name ever) to slid inside the shirt, but yeah, the lower the neckline the less they stay in place. So i have started sewing in custom inserts to bring the neckline up. I love this idea of making the 'bust shape' neckline instead of always having to resort to the 'straight across' look. While your results are still a little low for my taste (yeah, I prefer NOTHING is showing. lol Any lower just feels so wrong to me. Not to mention usually cold.), I love the idea of being able to give it some shape. Maybe I'll start experimenting a bit more now. Thanks for the idea! Also, depending on the garment itself, its often not hard to just cut the insert down to size and actually sew it in place on the garment itself so that you don't have to pin it inside. But that depends on the lines and seams that already exist.

I'm a little sorry that I didn't show the bra being pinned while I was wearing it (but I would have felt a little bit weird on camera in just a bra!), but the pinning I did while the bra was on the dress form is exactly the same as how I did it on myself. I just used straight pins, and sandwiched the pointy end between the bra and cover. I wore it for a whole evening of wedding activity including dancing, and did not get poked by the pins even once! the outer bottom corners were indeed just left loose, and I did not have any problems with them riding up. That said, your mileage might vary. Hope that helps!

I remember the first time my parents bought me a lower cut shirt when I was in high school. Even though it didn't really show any cleavage, I still thought it was low cut. I guess I was born with the fashion sense of a Victorian. Lol

Yay, got a dress thats too revealing and I didn't want just flat under. The folds will be great for my dress and I think a very similar set of fabrics will be great.

Blouse inserts are quite an old thing. I had yards and yards of old lace that just sat there. So I cut them into 10 inch pieces and thensewed them together, row upon row. Next to the top corners I stitched enough flat elastic to reach around each bra strap and sewed snaps for fasteners. It covers the entire cleavage, but i sheer enough to let you think you see more then there really is. It's a great illusion.

I love doing piece work, onto existing dresses in my collection. I am a hairdresser, so when I lean over the basin, I like to be very modest, with nothing peeping out! Great finish on your dress, beautiful. Love Princess Holly of Australia 🕊🌿🍀☘🌴🌵🍃🌳🥦🌲🕊🌿🍀💐☘🌿🌴🌵🍃🥦

I have a dress that's not quite as low cut as this. I've been thinking about finding a bit of lace to give me a little more coverage. I understand that it might affect the structure or pull on the dress though... I'll definitely have to try this out!

I like shirts with a built in fake undershirt. What I like about staying at my ideal weight is that when having to buy ready made off the rack clothing in my size when being overweight they do not come with a plunging neckline as often unless it is an evening gown like what you are describing to make alterations on. In my case on my high school graduation ceremony I sewed my own gown instead. It had a built in metal ring which held the gathers over one of my clavicles to hold the fabric across my chest high up while exposing only my right shoulder instead of any cleavage which at the time I didn't have anyway.

what a great idea and great tip. but instead of twill tape and serged edges, you could have sewed all the way around the block, and left a turning hole at the bottom, and turned it right side out, and all edges are finished, sewing the bottom closed. easy peasy. Love the plan. though. and one could even pin straight onto a bra to wear it.

Thank you for this! It's really hard for me to find dresses that are flattering because of my short waist and wide hips. And the ones I do find tend to have low necklines. But wearing a camisole doesn't feel like it matches the formality of the dress, so I definitely want to try this!!

When I wear low cut dresses, I often wear a strapless tube dress underneath so I could do a somewhat Edwardian evening gown-esque look.

Definitely going to make a few for emergencies. Maybe put in button hole loops to attach to bra straps with easy removal. I had a few of those "cami-secret" type things in highschool because the dress code required a camisole for anything more than a t shirt crew neck. I always hated how photoshopped in the looked, I wish I had this in my drawers back then!
