It looks like the point of the breast dart sits too high. It usually ends at the point of the breast.
Yeah, but that's just because of the pose. Her shoulders are pulled way back, making the fabric stretch across her chest and ride up on it. Increasing her breast size from the default probably didn't help either. The dart is just where it belongs in the A-pose.
Pretty sure that's what will happen in real life, as well. Most ladies don't glue the darts to their nipples, or so I hear. Of course, I'm no expert, so I'm just guessing. :grin:
On the other hand, making the fit a bit looser and adding a yoke to compensate might help a bit with the riding up.
There's plenty of reference patterns available on line. If you want to flex your muscle in Italian here's a good one:

That's saying "page not found".
Looking at patterns is definitely helpful, but I find it can be a bit of a hen and egg problem. Not all patterns are easy to read, sometimes I need to understand the construction principles first before I can understand what the pattern does.
