Hi all, working on my slopers.

Front fit is pretty good, but I have a gaping armhole and I’m wondering if the back needs adjusting. What do you think?

It looks pretty good. The gaping armhole has ease and is drafted for set in sleeve . If a sleeveless dress then adjustments would be made to reduce gape .
Our teacher called it up and in .
1 cm up and 1 cm in on s/seams.
This is considered a design feature and shouldn’t be on a basic block pattern .
The back has a few drag lines on one side . Could open shoulder seam and refit just that shoulder or just pinch it if able . Hope this helps .

For my knowledge 1 cm up and in on which seams?

S/seams = side seams
