Step 1
Start from back.
Lower the armholes by 2-3cm and draw the neckline from left side to right high shoulder point, then measure 8-10cm on shoulder line and draw the right armhole.
Cut through the lines.
Asymmetric top with drape
Let'd draft the pattern for this dressy top.
It has a drape starting from the shoulder and a long neck tie.
To sew it, silk satin gives the effect you see in the last photo, but you could use any lightweight, drapey fabric.
Draft the pattern starting from a basic block with darts and minimum wearing ease (4-6cm at bust circumference, 4cm at hip, unfitted at waist).
You can learn our method for drafting perfectly made to measure basic blocks (contoured ones, and the ones with wearing ease) and for fitting them in our basic blocks course/module 1.
Step 2
Divide the new shoulder line into 4 even sections and draw 3 slash lines, all of them coming up to the hip line: one ends in center back, the other two end at dart extension.
Erase the waist dart, as they are not needed for this unfitted style.
Step 3
Cut through the slash line starting from the shoulder.
Spread the pieces in a temporary way, as you will later need to balance the volume with front.
Set the back aside.
