Seamwork Ruth wrap top

Seamwork's Ruth is a notched collar faux-wrap style dress. The Ruth bonus turns the dress into a top with a peplum skirt, and ties from the side seams. I wanted the top style version, but with a straight-skirt rather than peplum hem.

Continuing my luck with fabric I didn't notice that the back bodice I'd cut had a giant grease stain right in the middle. I've no idea when the in the last five years that might have happened. So I cut another back bodice and kept going. This fabric creases a bit more readily that I'd hoped, and stronger closures would help with feeling more relaxed while wearing it. The ties, in the photo, are pulling the sides, making it look much more straight-sided than it is in reality. It's a nice 'smarter'/office style top, but still feels a bit fussy to me while wearing. Though that is probably just a preference thing.
