Garment detail 

The elegance of this design relies on its unique combination of surplice neckline and mounted shawl collar. Affixed to the upper-right-hand edge of the dress front panel, the bias-cut rounded collar spirals upward around the left shoulder, encircling the neck and overlapping back to the right shoulder, resolving at the left bust and fastening with large, covered leather-edged buttons. The set-in sleeves are darted at the elbow to allow for mobility, as well as comfort and fit.
