One shoulder asymmetrical neckline with nude elastic strap to support the off the shoulder side and a rosette on one shoulder. Sleeves are of unequal length to mirror the asymmetrical motif.

There is a fair amount of horizontal stretch in the fabric that provides some flexibility in sizing through the waist and hip.
