The Raven is a dress or shirt with a dropped shoulder and scoop back that is both trendy and suitable for comfortable everyday wear. Add a short or long ruffle or leave it simple. Make a top with split hem or a dress with elastic waist for easy pull on. There are three sleeve options and an optional tie around the waist for a belted look. For the back, choose a simple band, ties or a raised scoop. This pattern is recommended for woven fabrics, however the dress can be made with lightweight knits as well.
