This is a very old and highly altered Lucy that I got second hand during my last pregnancy.
Alterations:
- Gore was narrowed and bows were removed by the previous owner. I undid the gore narrowing alteration, restabilized it with a piece of fabric, and sewed a little star bead on the gore in place of the bow.
- I cut the straps slightly shorter to add nursing clips.
- I sewed the band smaller because it had stretched out so much with wear.
Since it's pretty closed on top, I can get away with wearing it at a cup size or so smaller. The wires are surprisingly not bothersome when I do this, maybe because they've softened or because I've bent them in.
