There are some garments in my wardrobe that are in heavy rotation and this peplum top is one of them. It just looks good with everything. I particularly like it with a cropped jacket or cardigan with the peplum peeking out the bottom.
My Review:
Pattern: Simplicity 1699
Fabric used: Ponte Di Roma in ivory ( I’m a little disappointed that it has pilled so quickly)
Instructions: So simple!! Especially with no sleeve to set in… raglan sleeve for the win!
Changes I made: I didn’t make any changes to the pattern but I did omit the collar. It wasn’t my thing….
Oh!… and of course I used an invisible zip instead of a lapped…
Repeat worthy? Yes. I really want to make the longer sleeve version for winter!

This was such a quick and easy make and I really love that the peplum isn’t too overwhelmingly poofy… it has just the right amount of flounce…
Very cute and versatile!
Another thing that seems to be drafted just for you! And you wouldn’t think it’s selfmade, too. Perfect in every way! 🙂
Looks great and sounds like a quick, satisfying make!
That's a perfect go-to top!
Love your style, Margo 🙂

Lovely fit and drape. Did you size down since you were using a ponte knit?
