bunz said... Some guts, Melody, for going for a Miyake! It's hard to tell from the picture how it fits. Couldn't you just cut this one down or add darts? Then, I guess the existing snaps would be decorative and you'd have to add new ones. Anyway, thanks a bunch for reviewing this. I've been looking at it, but hadn't a clue. Great review. 1/21/05 9:00 PM

mag said... What a neat outfit. Maybe it would hold together better out of something like a stretch cotton. Sounds like a fun project to sew. 1/22/05 8:25 AM
Hilary said... Very cool, Melody! I really enjoyed your review- sounds like an adventure just *wearing* it! I may have to get this just to try it out :oP I was thinking the same thing as Mag-maybe a stretch woven would work out better? Along with a couple darts and stabilizing the waist...I hope if you try this again you'll do another review! 1/22/05 8:40 AM
