    I ordered a small, cause i have the Cheers dress in medium and it's a little big in the waist. I am hoping the small isn't too small. I can measure the waist when I get it and let you know the actual measurement if you would like.

    The Pencil Skirt

    I like that skirt alot Paul. If I want a pencil skirt I have to make it or have it made. I was never able to buy off the rack even when I was wearing sizes 6 and 8.

    Sewing Lessons & FAQ

    In an effort to get better at fitting and professional details, I am taking the Bomshell dress course on Craftsy. I think I have to make a larger bust adjustment to reduce the gaping at the bust and I don't have a dress form. Does anyone have any tips about doing this sort of fitting on...

    What decade most flatters your figure?

    You can probably get away with it if the fit is perfect. I had a custome pencil dress made for me and I am very pair shaped (still not brave enough to post my measurements though). I also think slim tulip skirt looks good.
