Vest with lapels and double-layer peplum, with narrow shoulders. Open-bust so it can be worn over a nice shirt or dress. Peplum placed at the hip and starting small at the front increases hip-to-waist ratio without adding volume to the lower abdomen, creating an hourglass shape without making the wearer look "pregnant" from a side view. May have boning on bodice seams. Front closure should be invisible, hook-and-loop or inside buttons. The gray ?shirt? is for modesty only and is NOT part of the design. Variation, embellishment, fabric, and print/color suggestions are welcome. |
