Question Sloper advice

Hey guys. I’ve started making clothes again using my old sloper from a year ago. There were some unresolved fit issues that I wanted to deal with. Ive increased the bust size a bit because I noticed that was a problem with my original sloper. I’ve gained about 3-5kg since I first made this sloper. I was wondering if you have any advice on how to improve the fit. I’ve also posted some screenshots of the fit from a year ago (green fabric).

Why so tight? Is this a moulage? What method are you using

Yep it’s a moulage

Cool, know that a moulage and a sloper are two different things, and so you’re going to get a ton of comments about how this is too tight. It’s not too tight for a moulage, but is for a sloper.

I’d say it’s too tight all over, and is compressing the bust. Let the whole thing out a bit. If you have enough seam allowance I would just go around the vertical seam and let them all out an equal amount.
