The tee is of a denser weave so it's heavier, smoother and more opaque. The silk bow top is more crepey and spongier, it's floatier, if that makes any sense. The bow top has quite a bit of natural stretch and a velvety feel. <br /><br />I'm looking forward to the plum. ;)tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-15802248725087179842012-10-16T23:15:29.377-07:002012-10-16T23:15:29.377-07:00Hi ajc, thanks so much!

However, since the thread is the same color as the blouse, you'd have to be very careful so you don't snip the fabric, some of the stitches are only from the front of the top. I'm convinced it can be done and I'm awfully tempted to remove the bow too. tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-15639766631387082142012-10-16T23:06:54.742-07:002012-10-16T23:06:54.742-07:00Gigi, the anchors aweigh pants would be perfect, t...Gigi, the anchors aweigh pants would be perfect, that's the only other item I've given sumptuous status (at least thus far).

I do like the movement of it but I'm starting to think about removing the bow ... the line "one of our favorite motifs of the season" had the opposite effect on me, as I'm fairly certain as unintended by CFS.tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-91258891679205402142012-10-16T22:40:19.198-07:002012-10-16T22:40:19.198-07:00Oh my mother had me trained to love silk since I w...Oh my mother had me trained to love silk since I was a little girl.
