It wasn't until I actually put it on that I discovered the issues. Oh well, it's just a learning experience for me to remember to think how a pattern falls on a person and not just on a hanger.

I'm terrible at noticing bad pattern placement - I wonder what I haven't noticed about my own clothes! - so it took me a really long time to see the problem in your prior photos. But this looks great - I love the sense of movement created by cutting the fabric on the diagonal. That fabric is absolutely gorgeous and it makes me want to find my own silk and sew up a Saltspring!
