thank you to the Crafty classes about sewing with sheers I ended the collar sleeveless blouse from the book of a notorious British show about sewing.
Cutting it on the paper was a pain in the neck even if I starched the fabric before.
I cut a size 8 for the shoulders blending it with a 12 for the bust.
French seams, lightweight interfacing on the collar gave a good result. As I needed more dart control at the bust I translated it at the shoulder gathering.
