My favorite pattern for drapy fabrics again and again. Not much to say really, a simple fast serger project. Not a stitch done on the sewing machine, everything in this one is serger, so speed. Simple cut, drapy fabric, 15 minutes cutting out and about an hour of sewing.

Although I used a pattern from Burda WOF magazine of 10/1998 which is hard to come by, I wrote a how to adjust a basic top pattern to achive the same drape effect:

What you could do is download a simple top pattern and elongate to top shoulder seams to the sides so that there will be more fabric left in the center front, also raising a little the inside corners of the neckline for the front.
