The Coram Top and Dress sewing pattern is a loose-fitting raglan ideal for woven fabrics with drape. This design features bust and shoulder darts for shaping.
Sleeve cuffs offer a clean finish and a curved, dolphin hem provides visual interest. View A (top) features a hi-low hem, while the hem of View B (dress) is even from front to back.
This is a sewing pattern intended to be used by the home sewist, not a finished garment.

This is such a quick sew. I made the size 14, since that’s closest to my measurements, and I made no changes since the pattern is already really long so that you can tuck it into pants. It’s so comfortable to wear!

Great pattern. Raglan sleeves are great for me because I have narrow shoulders; the Monarch’s sleeves pattern pieces fit perfectly. This was my first version years ago, but I’m sharing since it’s modified. It may give you some ideas of how to get more mileage out of this pattern.
I simplified mine since my fabric (a quilted-look low-stretch knit) was a bit bulky. I left off the sleeve cuffs and the bottom band. Then, I used a big sew-on snap (covered by a big button I found in my button box) only at the neckline instead of the visible snaps. So, this is a bit of a swing style. Super easy to wear.

I used this pattern to make a top to wear over tights. I found this an easy pattern to make, and love the relaxed style and comfortable fit.
