Everybody loves a sweet bonbon. So without further ado, meet Bonnie! It’s a top that while super simple, is full of stylish details. The sleeves have a touch of flair with box pleat cuffs. Do you prefer long or 3/4-length sleeves? Altering to make it the length you want is a snap. Find out how on www.fibremood.com.

What else has Bonnie got in her bag of tricks? A slightly curved boat neckline, French darts, and an elegant opening at the back with a hook-and-eye closure. After all, details count for a lot. This pattern looks lovely in a solid, whether bright or pastel, but you also won't go wrong with a nice print.

Fabric advice

To show off the unique sleeve design, a structured fabric like poplin is a great choice. Other options guaranteed to please? Chambray, Tencel, crepe, or satin. Even leather will look pretty as a picture.
