I have pretty much got a good bodice sloper too, again, apart from one (or is it two?) issues. The bicep measurement was too small, which caused pulling at the underarm and wrinkles in the bust. I slashed the bicep area and that relieved the wrinkles and the pulling, and so I can see that adding to the bicep will give me a result. However, the armhole fits EXACTLY round my arm, and although the pulling is gone now, I worry that it is too tight even for a sloper. I have compared it to patterns, and can see that even the fitted blouse drops and widens the armhole somewhat. So I need to know if I should ALSO increase the armhole depth and reduce the side seam, and how much below the arm would be a good adjustment. Thanks for any help | |||

Michele, the bodice sloper will be snug up under the arm, but you should be able to still have movement. Unless it is cutting into your armpit, I would leave it alone and make a fitted blouse to see the fit with ease. | ||||
