I have found that with many old corset patterns in
general, I have to take in the bust gores
considerably. I didn't use this particular pattern,
but I did put together another ageless pattern corset
and that was the easiest way to fix the problem of the
overly-large bust.
I can't say that my measurements were THAT far off,
though. I know in the past, that with other corset
patterns with so many pieces, I've ended up throwing a
whole piece away to get it to fit correctly. Strange!
If you have someone to help you fit it, try to see
where it is coming out too large and have them help
you pin it in to fit/cinch you. That's the best
suggestion I can offer, which is probably obvious! ;)
When I've made the Ageless Patterns work, I've always
been pleased with the results. Good luck!
