Success* seems like a direct translation that might not be the full meaning.

    In Belgian Dutch, “having success” can mean being (romantically) popular, maybe the meaning is similar here

      Nah here it means pretty much the same thing as in english. Just her being successfull with her dress that day and then realizing its not success but her dress not being buttoned up properly. I think in very archaic speech(maybe even before our language reform) it meant flat but that doesnt really fit jucika with her pretty not flat shape and also its like very archaic, ibe never heard someone say it in a natural context.
