To make it fit better, maybe put in some loops made of piping at the back (or front, depending on the look she wants) and then a lace, so she can tighten or loosen it to fit. Sharon C.

WTH Happened? I just finished a 50's sundress for my daughter. It has a fitted boned bodice with a natural waist and a full skirt. I spent a lot of time fitting the bodice snugly to her. After one wearing she can stick her hand down the bodice and the straps are falling down her arms. It's 100% quilting cotton. It was pretortured and we've washed & dried it again; it's still too large. I'll rewash & dry it and then I'll have to take it in. I'm frustrated. Any idea what could have happened? The bodice is even lined.
