What the Construction Allows
The jacquard fabric holds the volume of the skirt while the corset bodice provides structure above the basque waist. The lace-up closure allows some adjustment through the back. Our seamstresses would need to evaluate the bodice and fabric in person before determining whether additional changes to the fit or neckline are possible.
