An Innovative Silhouette

In our new Summer collection, we feature innovative knits, exciting new prints, fresh fiber choices and fashion-forward designs.  One of the designs I find particularly creative is our Element Tunic.  Fine-gauge jersey knit of Peruvian pima cotton, this chic design is not only fun and slimming but also hides a cutting-edge sleeve treatment that makes this seemingly classic shape an unorthodox choice.

As you can see in the illustration above, on the wearers right side the design features a raglan sleeve construction with wide sleeve opening.  On the left side is an angled seam with dolman sleeve characteristics and a narrow notched opening.  The sleeves appear to be the same length when worn but this asymmetric silhouette captures the contemporary new-wave of pattern-making found in European and Asian boutiques without taking it too far outside the average persons comfort zone.  The effect is so subtle that most do not notice it but you will certainly feel progressive energy when you wear it.
P.S.  Also available in Petite!

If you are showcasing the sleeve, then why use a shot where the model has her arm bent and both sleeves cannot be seen??!!!

Thanks Buffy for mentioning this because you bring up an excellent point. I wish I had a profound answer for you but the truth is we simply did not have a lot of good film to choose from for this piece. In retrospect we regret not shooting it differently but I hope the illustrated silhouette helps.

Hidden sleeve, my thoughts exactly and that annoying bag in the way of the back and side view. Also a close up of the material would be useful since it mentions fine guaze, would like to see it close up.

The fit is great, fabric is wonderful too. It is very comfortable and stylish. But...I thought it was black. Indeed it is blue.
