Fit adjustments

Every body is different and your proportions might differ from those referenced in the sizing chart. You can make pattern adjustments to get your perfect fit. To help you get started, here are some resources on how to make fit alterations for this pattern.

Bust adjustments

The bodice of the Marlon dress is fitted around the bust and has armscye darts. Sizes XS-L were developed for a cup size B, and sizes XL-4XL for a cup size D. The pattern includes a PDF tutorial for adjusting the bust to different cup sizes (full bust adjustment, small bust adjustment, dart placement).
