Pattern Fantastique - Calyx Smock and Top
The Calyx Smock is a raglan sleeved full top or dress gathered in at the neckline. Wear full and floaty, or cinch it in at the waist for a little more definition.
You can sew this up in a variety of fabrics, giving you a versatile wardrobe piece year round. From fine sheer light-weight silks for some full floaty romance through to mid-weight denim paired and layered for winter warmth. Just ensure you don't choose anything too heavy that will be too thick to bind after gathering.
