Hi everyone, I'd need a little advice because I'm about to make my first costume and I'm unsure how to go about it. I feel I have a difficult body to dress generally, there's too much that can go wrong (and I seem to be an expert in this regard :think - I'm posting a picture.
(yes, the bra is terrible, makes my breasts pointy and minimalized, don't wear it anymore.) I also have issues with lower tummy fat which is not visible at this angle. I assume I'm an hourglass based on my measurments which is always just briefly covered in any advice column as the desired shape and that's it, minimal advice. For example what to do if you have a nice waist from the front view but a tummy sticking out from the side look (covering it up? How, if you don't want to mess up the whole silouhette?). Or how to avoid turning into one of the triangular figures by accidentally minimalizing or emphasising the top or bottom half. I never seem to get it right and I want to invest in this costume I'll be making, so I need to be sure it will work for me. Can you give me some tips? Are there any dancers with a similar body type I could get inspiration from? Thank you for your ideas.
