Charlie Caftan extended size 16 D cup

I was really happy to see that Closet Core Patterns were testing extended sizes in the Charlie Caftan as I’d been all ready to make one for summer and it saved me making the FBA! 🙂 I signed up to test the 16 D cup and it really fits me perfectly. Very true to size I’d say.

They added bust darts for the extended sizing, which adds a nice bit of shaping around the bust and also shaped the waist a little more. I made View B with the extended sleeve and waist ties and made it in this pretty bold Holli Zollinger print from Nerida Hansen. It was a fun make and I really fancy the longer version now.

There are more pics and construction details on my blog post here if you’re interested 🙂
