Help fitting a bias slip dress

I'm currently making a slip dress. I made the pattern for this draft using a thrift store dress that was a bit small. I added some room around the hips and waist to a traced version of the pattern, and then used that to make the dress shown in the images.

It seems like it's still too small around the torso. I'm also wondering if there are other fit issues I am not seeing. For example, the rippling at the hip. Will increasing the width of the torso help with that?

All of the seams are french seams, if that changes anything.
