I like the idea with moving up the waist seam. Thank you for inspiration.
It should fit me better, because of my figure ( one size different between waist and hips )

Brilliant result. The shirt cuffs add nice interest to balance it all out.

This looks perfect.And you look great in it! Makes me want to make Zoe again with higher waist, and the longer length gives such a nice look.. Cute blouse you have with it. Excellent job!

Thank you girls, you are really kind! I’ll try to share the information, but ‘cause I’m novice (5th sewing project) and I do not know the word to explain it (for the english is second foreign language for me). Yes, as you have seen I’ ve moved the waist line and I added about 15-20 cm in the lower part. I also added (don’t know how it’s called – this 2 sewed lines from my waist line to my bust…) The material is beige cord, which I’ve bought for 3.25 Euros/m. I cut it size 34, but I’m obiviously size 32, and that’s what the altered details were for.
