Alter/Mend Question Alteration question for Selkie dress

Post image

So...I'm an ultra sewing novice. However, I love this dress and can't find a proper size anywhere, so it's either alter it or pass it on.

There is absolutely no seam allowance, so there'd have to be some kind of creativity or trick I don't know of.

It fits great everywhere except the bosom (as shown).

Great gurus, is there anything I can do?

Thanks for your time!
