I’m a sucker for a back detail, and honestly I don’t have enough patterns with one! Chuck out your bras, let the girls free and flaunt your beautiful back! She’s super flattering with this back shaping covering up some of the back area that people feel most self-conscious about. It’s cropped with a super cute puff sleeve and a flattering boat neckline sitting across your collar bones. I’m in love, I hope you will be too!

PS. It’s seamless..
