im so late for malissa variation contest! but i finally did make it. i omitted sleeves and turtle neck thing. I gather the front fabric rather than making tucks, then added a slit for the front panel. added waistband to give some shape.
blue stretch knit, some kind of spandex mix
burdastyle melissa pattern
