Hi Ann
Thanks for the image, the waistband tied behind in the same fabric is one of
the thoughts I had.
Yes I agree you don't see buttons on many fashion plates, although there
seem more on riding habits and more active clothing.
Yes I've used lighter fabric on the facing & tried various weights of
ribbon. Bunching as in gathering isn't the problem, it more how it lies and
meets (or does not) with the bodice, without it being too tight to be
comfortable
It is very quiet here these days isn't it ?
Mel
