The Tea House Top and Dress features a V-line neck, front and back neck yokes, in-seam angled pockets, and cuffed short dolman sleeves. This versatile pattern can be made multiple times with different results, with three different lengths (hip-length top, above-the-knee dress, and tea-length dress) and two tie options (wide or spaghetti waist tie). There are no closures to sew, just pull the garment on over the head and tie!
