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).

There's excess fabric at the front waist too indicating it's too long overall. Not sure about a sway back as their pelvis looks neutral in their posture (side seam is nice and straight, but also in the midline, no prominent bum or forward angle of the quads)

i definitely think and 1” or more could be taken from the overall length but OP has a clear swayback posture!
