Haiku Dress

Kimono styling is what I had in mind for this dress and its matching tunic designs.  The lapped collar goes into a high bust seam, with deep pleats falling from the shoulder to the bust point and at the center back.  The sleeves are three-quarter length and slightly full.  The skirt is cut on the bias for skimming the curves, and the hemline is just below the knee. Shown here in Turquoise heavy weight linen.
