Notes Little by little, I start to realize that I have to decrease the shoulder seam from the shoulder by 2-3 cm so that the back part can be lowered without bags. That's why I should probably edit the shoulder line of the fitting mannequin because it doesn't show the same problems as when putting it on.
I don't like the back zipper because it's always difficult to catch and open.
Fortunately, I added length to the sleeves when cutting the fabric. They would have been too short. Even so, I could no longer turn the inner space. Instead, I added bias tape. I also added 3 cm to the hem of the bodice.
Unfortunately, that bias tape twists a little on the right side of the neck. It probably still needs to be fixed. Any tips on how to keep it straight? :)
I fixed the neckline because I wasn't happy with it.

    Вы молодец, что не боитесь сложных решений. Чтобы вещь хорошо сидела по фигуре-ее нужно тщательно отпарить утюгом. Ткань у вас очень плотная. Попробуйте на место утюжки через тонкую ткань поставить утюг, а потом убрать утюг и прижать это место деревянным бруском или кусочком ЛДСП. Шов обычно отутюживается как на фабрике.
