Designed with a flattering fitted bodice and beautifully gathered skirt, Rissa creates an effortlessly feminine silhouette that's as comfortable as it is versatile. The classic tank bodice gently skims the body while the softly gathered skirt adds beautiful movement and an easy, flattering fit.

Whether you're pairing Rissa with sneakers for everyday errands, sandals for summer outings, or dressing it up with a cardigan and accessories, it's a timeless wardrobe staple you'll reach for again and again. The clean scoop neckline and easy wear-everywhere design make it just as stunning in solids as it is in bold prints, florals, or your favorite specialty knits.

Construction is beginner-friendly and comes together quickly, making Rissa an enjoyable project for newer sewists while still being a satisfying, fast sew for experienced makers.
