Why the 10ft, chest height picture actually makes sense - with pictures

I have been thinking about this a lot. I initially felt like this picture for the sketch line elongated me compared to candid pictures and, tbh, reality.

Like this is the 10ft, chest height pic:

And these are candids of me, which is pretty much how I see myself:

A bit short, wide and soft

But then there pictures like these:

Sorcery! I am suddenly longer and straighter!

I am the same weight on all of these, and hopefully still 5'4 (163cm). None are mirror pics. But I definitely don't look the same.

I think the 10ft & chest pic is actually kind of a mixture of these 2, which helps having a better understanding of your actual silhouette. I am still somewhat stuck with my actual ID but I have a better idea of what I am working with that just looking at pictures. What do you think?

Accomodating width - yellow top take 2

A few weeks (?) ago I posted abt this fitted yellow top and how it didn't fit me properly above the bust bc of my width & bc of the tiny cap sleeves that always end up loking awful bc they end on the fleshiest part of my upper arms... My youngest daughter suggested that I take off the sleeves which I did!

I do think it looks better. What do you think?

Edit: ppl mentioned my pants in the 2d pic also look better. Funnily enough these were also altered: I tend to size up in jeans to fit my hips/butt, and to take in the waist to have a better fit.

What is considered 'fussy' for SN? Are prints also included?

I think Kibbe specified in Metamorphosis that N family shouldn't wear tiny prints. In POS he says that SN shouldn't wear anything "fussy" - nothing for FNs. Are prints included?

Like is this tiny floral print too small/delicate for me? I am trying to get used to more flowy, width appropriate looks & thrifted this, but then once worn wondered about the print...

I know that fit issues aren't accomodations, but I think I have width (probably SN) and I noticed this with fitted tees. It is my size. It fits just right accross the bust, with room to spare around the waist. But it pulls terribly under the arms, and although it has an open V neckline, the sleeves don't fit right (the seam is at the red arrow).

Do you also have this issue? I like fitted tees but it is not comfortable. Upsizing would make it really baggy on my chest and waist... what kind of fitted tops would be more compatible with width? Maybe sleeveless?
