“THE BISQUE DRAPED WRAP NECK TOP”
………………..The DRAPED WRAP NECK TOP is something I have been wanting to do for a long time….A384501 is the style number of this MOSS CREPE KNIT TOP…This is the last new apparel item for the month of Oct…..I wanted it to look like you wrapped a scarf snugly around your neck and across your chest. It has to be draped just right, and have just the right tension…..not too loose where the drapes just droop, and not too tight so it’s uncomfortable. There is a RETRO HOLLYWOOD LOOK to this top that reminds me of glamorous movie stars of the past….There are stitched pleats starting at the back neck, and as they come around just passed the shoulder seam they are released to form drapes……..The front and back of the top has PANEL SEAMING which create a body grazing shape. The draped sections are sewn into the panel seams in the front. Make sure when you put it on the seam allowances on the panels where there is the connection are going in the right direction so they lay as smoothly as possible…..there is some thickness at the join from the layers of fabric…… The drapes should fit close to the neck so there is a little tension for the drapes to fall correctly……The sleeves are straight, long and finished with a simple hem. Since this top is in the Moss Crepe, which has a lot of stretch, you can easily push them up if you like….The draped neckline looks beautiful under so many different necklines. Jackets, and blazers of all shapes look great with this top…..Cardigans get a fashion boost when paired with this top…….Above, I have paired it with the new Tweed V -neck Jacket, and the Bisque riding jacket……The bisque also looks great under both Tartan blazers, and picks up the light color thread that runs through both plaids…..It was also designed to go with the NEW TCF BIG DEAL TOPPER………..Many different types of necklaces work beautifully with this top….Above the Jet Glitterati and the new Bisque Arte Moderne pendant……………enjoy……………………..much Love………………………….Louis
