I removed the shoulder pads and the dated buttons, and sewed the button band closed. I took in the sides, and I turned the whole thing around and made the back into the front, adding a few pleats at the bust. Finally, I used some polka dot bias tape from a previous refashion to finish the edges.

oH MY! That was one big blouse! It looks so much prettier now. I like the bias edging and front pleating.

Very you!
A much better blouse for that pretty fabric. :)
Way better, of course, I love this shape and style...so flattering and I need to make more for myself! On top of all that, the polka dot bias is PERFECT!!! Love that idea and totally stealing it soon...if I can get myself sewing again ;)
