The Relaxed Woven Top is an architectural everyday blouse with a flattering boxy silhouette. Grown-on (kimono/dolman) cap sleeves eliminate the complexity of sleeve insertion, while an internal neck facing provides a crisp, professional neckline without visible exterior stitching. Generous side slits allow the hem to drape smoothly over hips and waistbands.
Front and back flats illustrating seam lines, hem curves, and design details.

Solutions for common fitting hurdles and construction errors specific to this garment.
Possible Cause: Understitching was skipped or facing wasn't secured to shoulder allowances.
Recommended Fix: Tack the facing to the shoulder seam allowances with small hand stitches or machine stitch in the ditch.
Possible Cause: Underarm curve seam is too shallow for your reach.
Recommended Fix: Reinforce underarm with small stay-stitches, then clip underarm curve every 1 cm to release tension.
