   A lovely top that worked well. I look forward to wearing it in cooler weather as my fabric was thicker than average jersey.

   A lovely top true to size instructions are not to bad until the bias around the neck. I ended up doing it my way which turn out just the same but worked better for me. I am about to make a couple more as my daughter finds them great in the Office as an extra layer but still looking dresses

   I loved making this top! I chose a very soft viscose with a matte finish. The pattern has some very clever details that make the finished product very special, and I received many compliments. Some people complain about Style Arc “abysmal” instructions; they are indeed very…essential…but I found that only minimal reading and comprehension skills are actually required. The instructions are complete, albeit laking illustrations (but again, we can all read, right?).

Please use the body measurements size charts below to determine your best size.
All Style Arc patterns are in Australian sizes.

Style Arc patterns are drafted for a B bust cup size and a height of 167cm (5'6").

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.

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
