So I took in a bit along each side and sleeve, maintaining the original cuff size. But it was still a bit too large in the waist to be flattering. I created an elastic casing across the back of the shirt from dart to dart. And now my favorite button-up shirt can retain its title.

I've got one more trick up my sleeve (pun very much intended) for taking in a button-up blouse. So keep an eye out for my series finale!

"unfortunately, it doesn't fit anymore"!!! I'd be pretty stoked that my clothes were getting too big on me ;) I love this fix, it is flattering and functional and I've appreciated your series! Great job!
This is great! Thanks for the tip.
I'm loving all your brilliant ideas to rescue too big shirts! keep them coming.
