This lovely feminine top has the perfect sleeve length with a flounce which will not dangle in your soup! The interesting neck darts not only look great, they also create a nice bust shape. This top is easy to slip on with its back loop opening. It’s not too fitted not too loose, just perfect.
Fabric Suggestion:
Silk, crepe or rayon.

I’ve made this top so many times now, I almost have to order a new one. It just sits so beautifully. As with all the SA patterns I have they are so well drafted.

I just love this top, it goes together so easily. I have made it 4 times now, a couple with variations on the sleeve. One I made the sleeves shorter with 2 flounces. It looked great. Style Arc patterns are always so well drafted & the pieces always just seem to fit together without any issues. Thank you for your wonderful work.

Love how this top turned out! I needed to make the sleeves a little longer, but apart from that it’s a beautiful pattern. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because the instructions are very minimal (actually omitting the sleeve darts), and the back closure takes a bit of time to work out. Second time around it will be a breeze.

Love this blouse – I made it in a soft denim-blue tencel so it drapes beautifully. Shortened the sleeves to fit, and they are perfect with the flounce. The neck darts are such a nice touch!

The pattern went together so well that I have made three with different fabrics. The only change that I made was enlarging seam allowance to 5/8″. I’m in the UK I have been delighted with all Style Arc patterns.

I loved this top! This was an easy sew and ended up looking very on point with the current style trends. This top had me at the flounce sleeve!
All the pieces went together great. I used a silk crepe de chine for my version and was happy with the drape and lay of the top.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?
Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.
When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth
Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.
B. Upper Arm Girth
This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.
C. Bust
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.
D. Waist
This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.
E. Hip
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
