Pattern Notes:
This garment is made top-down in the round with a lot of positive ease for the size. Elastic is sewed in the inside of the bandeau top which creates a cinched look. The sizing is very customizable, and there is an option for adding sleeves to the bandeau version. The sleeves are made separately and seamed to the body. The neckline is worked in the round from picked-up stitches.

Sizing:
If your bust measurement lies between the given measurements, then go with the size indicated. The garment has about 7.5-12.5 cm (3-5 inch) of positive ease built into it. It is advisable to size up if you are are on the cusp of 2 sizes as elastic cinches the garment to your body circumference. The larger the garment, the more ruffles and cinching the finished garment will have.

XS - 71-79 cm (28-31 inches)
S - 81-85 cm (32-34 inches)
M - 89-94 cm (35-38 inches)
L - 99-106 cm (39-42 inches)
