Interesting hack. Personally I wouldn’t tilt the front seam line up. Just draw it straight as the back. (Or adjust the tieres, which would make the pattern work less easy). As is, it pulls up in the front and forms those deep pleats. Looks like she needs an FBA. May just be me getting out of an intens 8 week fitting course. Or a tip for those who would prefer it without that pulled up hem line.

You are correct, the dress hem looks wrong.

@@robyn3349 I wouldn’t say wrong. If she likes it, I say: Go girl. Just not the way I would do it.

Not a good look with it pulling up in the center front, this is an easy fix...

I agree but I watched closely and it looks like they did it on purpose
