I may have just had an epiphany reading this! My left shoulder is higher than my right, but now I'm also wondering if my right shoulder is forward of my left. On fitted bodice's (like the Hawthorn) everything lines up on my left side, but I always have a slight 'puffiness' on my right and the dart doesn't necessarily match up as well as the left. If you figure out how to fix it please let me know! Or maybe I just need one of those super padded bras :).
