Thanks Demetrius. It still makes her look "large" but I think with a bit more folding and belting it will look more flattering. She's slim so it's nice to see a figure under all the folds.
I finished making a pair of carbatina for her today so her kit is just about done. Great tutorial here (even though he calls them "viking shoes":

Pretty easy. Took me about 2 hours. I will unlace them and round the corners of the toe cover strips. They need a few more coats of oil too. The next pair will be a bit better fitting as I made the heel a bit short but she says they are comfortable.
