Fitting and Attaching a Drop Sleeve to Bodice
How do I fit a drop sleeve (off the shoulder) comfortably?

My daughter has asked me to make her wedding dress (Vogue 2842), and it's going pretty well except for the fit of the off-the-shoulder lace sleeves. The movement of her arms seems restricted and pulls on the front and back of the bodice when she moves. They are attached with an elastic casing on the sleeve. Does anyone have any ideas how I can resolve this problem?

I have pattern making book at home that shows how to make the pattern and where to attach the sleeve. She shouldn't really have any/much restriction. I'll see if i can get anything from it and scan it for you when i get home
