Description

A charmeuse tank top in charcoal grey with soft salmon straps that twisted and criss cross under the bust. Casual yet romantic and delicate, while the pure silk charmeuse just added a drop of luxury in it.

I created the pattern myself, this top is partially lined and fused for a define shape. Surprisingly, there’s quite a lot of hand stitching work involved, but I love the way it turned out.

I’d appreciate any comments. Thank you :)

    Great! I love the soft fabrics (both being soft in colour and in texture), but the “twist” (the word used in both literal and idiomatic meaning) you’ve created is what makes this top unique!

    Very pretty. Love the straps wrapped around the bust. I bet this flatters just about everyone’s figure.
