HP 1218 DL St. Bart's Tunic-Dress & Blouse

These gorgeous, easy-breezy pieces are just right
for light-medium weight blouse and dress fabrics like 
voile, crinkled gauze, Broderie Anglais, chambray,
lawn, crepe or linen. You can also use a fluid knit, like 
a silk(y) jersey, linen, rayon, bamboo or viscose knit.

Relaxed-fit, pull-on dress and blouse have an A-line
silhouette controlled by released pintucks across the
front. Dress and blouse are gently gathered onto the
slit neckline; raglan sleeves give a relaxed look. The 
3/4 length sleeves work with the hip length blouse
and the tunic-length dress. Mix your hem & sleeve
finishes...try a classically curved shirt-tail hem, add
 a deep sleeve band or pick crisp horizontal pleats.
 
These wardrobe superstars love pretty trims like
pom-poms, tassels & piping, and they’re perfect 
during hot weather...swing the blouse on over loose 
pants, shorts or capris; try the tunic-dress worn over 
slim cropped or full-length pants; or wear the tunic-dress
with nothing more elaborate than tanned bare legs, 
a fresh pedicure and your favorite sandals.
