It can be made in woven or knit fabric and offers two neckline options: round or boat.  Each can be finished with bias binding, facing, or a jersey band (for a round neckline in knit fabric).  It can be embellished with an extended sleeve or a short or extra-short gathered sleeve, made in a single or double layer.  It is also available as a dress with an elasticated waist.
