I don't agree with DH, the top is darling! Men just don't deal with the empire waist ;) Your tie sounds like a good idea.

You definitely don't look fat! And I bet that Views D and B won't make you look pregnant. I think that illusion is due in great part to the handkerchief hem cut. I tried on some RTW tops like this and the ones with the straight hems were more flattering (on me) than the asymmetric hems. Your top is adorable. -Ann

Very cute floaty top.

I think the neckline is flattering, and that is what most people will see first. One thing about synthetic fabrics for this type of garment is that they don't drape as well as rayon, so the fabric sometimes stands away from the body more than you would want. If you try it again in rayon, it might look less maternity. But now that you know this pattern fits well, the other views will be easy to make and probably more slimming too.

I love your top and the choice of fabric - I think it looks great. And you defintely don't look fat!

Try the back ties; it won't hurt. Mini has a good point on the way fabrics drape; a rayon might bring you more success.

I think this looks great on you! I can't wait to try it once I get past the Kwik Sew/Simplicity stage. *baby step* :)
