Panels are sewn together at sides and shoulders.
Embellishments
Embellish with buttons at sides of ribbing. ALTERNATE STYLING OPTIONS Use one color for the criss-cross panels and a different one for the solid panel.

Reverse the shell so the V is on the back for two looks from the same finished product!
