This cool cocoon shaped dress is from Style Arc, its architecturally design gives the dress a flattering silhouette.  This dress can be worn during the day but add some heals and it will look great worn on a night out.  
 
Each panel has been engineered to create the drape and fall of this interesting style. Mid length front and longer back along with the extended shoulder line completes this avant-garde look. This pattern is a clever design but is also an easy make.  Along with the sleeve cuff, the design lines on this top give it a point of difference that is very on trend. The back yoke creates a flattering silhouette that is easy to wear. There are numerous ways to customise this pattern, you could combine woven fabrics with knit fabrics giving the dress and interesting texture or even use different coloured fabrics to give you your own individual style.
