1st fitting ladies jacket - help

Alterations from block pattern draft:

1. Armhole dropped by 1/2 inch

2. Front balance dropped by 1/2 inch at neck point


Good afternoon Rory and forum members. My wife Gosia is pleased with the initial fitting although I am seeing some issues. I hope that you can comment on what needs to change to optimize the fit.


After trying on the jacket this morning we noticed that the shoulders at the neck points are not sitting flush. I think the shoulder angles need to squared up. Any thoughts?


I also wonder if her right side is dropping.


Any tips to guide me in the right direction would be very helpful.

Armholes seems spot on. If there was an issue there you'd see a breaking at the waist line in the first front photo.
