A note from the designer about bust cup options: To determine your cup size, subtract the circumference of your over bust from the circumference of the fullest part of your bust. If the rounded difference is 1″ (2.5 cm), use A cup; 2″ (5 cm), use B cup; 3″ (7.5 cm), use C cup; 4″ (10 cm), use D cup; 5″ (12.5 cm), use DD cup.

Sleek yet simple

Bought this as soon as Kate showed it on The Edit. It’s turned out exactly as I’d imagined. I did normal body adjustments but with all the gathers it’s fairly forgiving. I lengthened it to mid calf. I like more leg coverage.
The yoke gave me some grief- not the patterns fault but it’s well worth tailors tacks for all the dots  as unpicking and correcting this fabric was tedious.
It’s a heavier weight viscose twill. Lovely weight.
The yoke is interfaced but even though I used light weight I feel it’s interfered with how the sleeves fit.
I had in seam pockets.
I will really enjoy wearing it.
