What kind of stich do I need to take in the waist of this dress without it looking a mess?
Picture 1 shows how the dress sits naturally
I would like to bring in the fabric around my waist area to be more form fitting (photo 2). There’s a lot of excess fabric around the waist which i’ve tried to show in pics 3/4.
I’m not too sure how to describe what I’m envisioning but i’d like the skirt part of my dress to start more near my hips not my chest - I hope this makes a tiny bit of sense 😅
Does anyone have a tutorials or previous projects that were similar that may help me do this? This is my first alteration attempt
