Underwear Bodice Toile

Last Wednesday, I began altering my basic block to create the bodice to the underwear of my full-scale dress. 
This included:
- Shaping the bust line
- Adding length from the hip-waist to create a more flattering fit
- Moving the side seams further towards CB
- Adding a horizontal dart to the bust to create a 50s shape


After shaping, I re-cut the bodice in more calico and prepared it for a first fitting.  I sewed on my boning channels using cotton tape and added ridgeline, to be replaced with synthetic whalebone later on.
