The Iseult sweater dress is constructed very simply with seamless, top-down raglan shaping and all portions worked in the round. The garment uses couture fitting with shaping in the back, bust, and waist. The elegance is in the details with subtle cable twists running down the princess seam lines and a Celtic motif on the bodice.
