I did alter it a bit. I didn’t add the elastic under the bust…mainly because I couldn’t figure out how to do it and I was impatient. I also sewed the front closed a bit (where the two triangles meet the bodice) I agree that the Tara is pretty flimsy and this one is too when I wear it. I feel like I keep having to check what is only display! It is nice for going out with the hubby for dinner…then I don’t mind a bit of peek-a-boo…

This looks so nice! I’m wondering, it looks like it has more coverage than the orignal tara top, by the fronts of the shoulders and the bust…If you altered it, was it hard to do? this top looks like it would be much more forgiving for a bra than the original tara!
