PATTERN FEATURES
The low front and back V-necklines and narrow straps were designed to cover bra straps and optional bra keeper instructions are included to hide and secure your bra straps within the garment for that extra couture detail.
With two pocket options, three hem finishes, two waist finishes and two hem lengths, you can mix and match any of the version's features.
Front & Back V-necklines - the back neck is low but should just barely cover a bra.
Shoulder straps that cover bra straps with optional bra keeper snaps.

Fabrics: Light-weight woven fabrics such as linen, linen blends, cotton lawn, silk noil, silk crepe de chine, wool gabardine and just about any woven dress-weight fabric that isn't too thick or stiff.
