You can also lengthen the pattern slightly overall to prevent the vertical stretch from pressing into soft flesh in unwanted ways. Pin in some extra fabric so you know how much to add. To add room to the pattern, I would make a mockup and then open up the X-shaped crotch seam and add room there. The seam, due to having more bulk and less stretch, is more likely to create camel toe, especially if the garment is slightly too short, since it can settle between the labial folds easier than smooth fabric would. I would alter a pattern as if it had a front seam (easier to add the needed room), but, if possible with the garment being made, cut it on the fold/without a front seam. Patterns may not account for the needed room in the crotch, so they may be a bit too small and cutting in. Some of the issue may also be in the fit of your garments.
I don’t usually link to Wikihow, but this is probably the best compendium of camel toe prevention techniques I’ve seen: If you have actual camel toe (the fabric settling between the labial folds, making the V more like a W), there are a lot of different products and tricks you can try. I think that if this is the case, most people realize that people have crotches and that like any body part, they come in all shapes and sizes, and it isn’t a big deal.
You can also wear dance tights underneath, since the thicker, tight material will help keep things smooth (much like the camel toe prevention products linked below), though these won’t change the size of the V itself. This will keep everything a little bit smoother because the elastic cutting in around your vulva will accentuate it. (And your undies would be uncomfortably tight ]) One thing you can try is to wear underwear that doesn’t cut in or have elastic or seams at the sides of your vulva, but rather something that extends down your legs a bit. Nothing can really compress this inward more, and if it could, it would be too tight and not allow you to breathe, which can be dangerous for your vaginal health.
This is if you don’t have true “camel toe” (where the folds of the labia are visible through clothing), but rather a large V that shows up. If your vulva is large/long based on bone structure or based on having labia that hang low, there isn’t terribly much you can do to hide that. There’s actually quite a bit you can do to prevent camel toe, though this answer might get slightly awkward for you, since I’ll be using anatomical terms.
