Today's Project :: Capelet


The silhouette of a capelet is usually like a triangle.  The top is a narrow opening for the head, and the bottom flares out.
For women that are pear shape, capelets can sometimes be unflattering because they only affirm the pear shape figure.

So today's challenge, I wanted to design a capelet that flatters the female figure better.
This design gives us more top by adding an oversized collar and gathered piece on the shoulder.
 The top stitched trims gives us this nice V-shape which visually draws the eyes to narrower  waist.
