Note I made my daughter a corset style top based on this pattern.First version without changes was ok,but i wasn’t crazy about it.The bust darts start in the middle and end up right at the nipple area .and doesn’t matter how much you will press it they still will look pointy ,like a nipples(this top is bra less ,so not the best look) so i made it princess seams instead.the back that splits makes a very weird look , so i connected the back pattern pieces and made it into one whole piece instead.also we didn’t like the triangular front parts,so i just trimmed them off ,to make the front cropped and straight.it's the most perfect pattern as a basic block,that easy to convert to pretty much any corset idea tops with great bust support.i highly recommend.
Fabrics that i used.Heavy denim for a shell, corset net for the interlining ( that gives that bust support even to a size C)and fully lined with a craft cotton.
This top became a staple piece in my daughter’s wardrobe,that pairs with the shorts in summer,and with jacket or warm cardigan with the jeans in winter.

The bomber jacket is also made from lekala patterns and has detailed post about it in my projects.please check it out if you are interested

    Looks like you got a very nice fit. It's really cute on her. Ahhh, to be young, again when you could wear almost anything.
