I have made this for a perfectly formed friend.
Well I did away with the boning – not sure if I got the wrong type – but it was too stiff for the fabric I used. Decided I would make a bit shorter for friend as she can get away with it and may have overdone it slightly.
Possibly this might end up just being a dress she can wear only for a her boyfriend – WHOOPS!
