Clothes hang beautifully from broad shoulders, and they make a gorgeous V shape with the rest of your body: hips and waist look teeny-tiny. Flaunt those shoulders, Girl! Add gathers, tucks, flounces, pads, whatever. Show those shoulders off, and give thanks for your great genetic gift. You and your dress look great.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326506316908891143.post-30679647087957396972015-08-13T11:59:04.515-03:002015-08-13T11:59:04.515-03:00It sounds like summer has finally arrived that way...It sounds like summer has finally arrived that way--I hope you are getting many chances to wear your new summer dresses!<br /><br />I'm going to echo others and say that the shoulders look fine. If I squint, I can see some of that pointing you're talking about--and I think another pull on the gathering threads might fix that too. Personally I appreciate it when bloggers talk about what they like and what they don't like about their projects. It feels more honest.Andreahttp://zoopolis.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326506316908891143.post-71009750965508340932015-08-11T01:16:01.720-03:002015-08-11T01:16:01.720-03:00What a gorgeous print and it looks lovely on you!What a gorgeous print and it looks lovely on you!fabric epiphanieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08315635356310954354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326506316908891143.post-35455078363852977952015-08-08T01:44:27.414-03:002015-08-08T01:44:27.414-03:00Such a gorgeous dress and I wouldn't worry abo...Such a gorgeous dress and I wouldn't worry about the shoulders they look fine. I also have broad shoulders so this is something I worry about when sewing but that dress looks stunning on you. I think you've done an amazing job with the pattern and I love the fabric!
