This loosely fitted dress or tunic in 10 sizes (XS to L and 1X to 6X) offers all-day comfort when knit in light, airy wool. Featuring strong cable and texture panels, the fabric is a study in diamond motifs. Slightly fitted through the bust with dropped shoulders and slightly longer armholes, the flattering A-line fit falls to knee or mid thigh length in soft folds. Side seam button bands and choice of two neckline shapes offer more styling options. Knit from hem to shoulder in portable pieces, this garment nonetheless has only two short shoulder seams—the rest is finished with knit-on bands in chunky rib.
