The Revel Topper is a quick and satisfying make but don’t let that fool you. The simple design offers some unique design features. The Revel pairs well with high waist pants and skirts and looks great as a short top but is also just long enough to tuck into a high to mid-rise bottom. All versions feature a cut-on shawl collar and yoke-like collar facing. The collar facing can be attachedfrom the inside or outside of the front allowing for either a more concealed construction or a purposefulyoke with the opportunity for color blocking, pattern mixing, embroidery, etc. Version A of the Topper is sleeveless and semi-cropped. Although it features bust darts, the fit is fairlyloose through the bust and waist and the sleeveless armholes fall off the shoulders and become cut-on shortsleeves. The sleeves also have deep facings that are stitched down. Version B is the same cut and fit as version A, although it has a slightly longer and narrower cut-onsleeve with a wide cuff that lands just above the elbow. Version C is a modified poncho with wide, bracelet length sleeves. This version is very loose and doesnot have darts.
