This is from the current 11/2008 issue. I'd use this for the base and add the v-neck and gathers.
I also have this 6/2004 issue. It has s a deep v-neck that I could use to compare to the raglan top. I just don't know how exactly to make the gathers. I assume I'll slash and spread but I've never done it before. On PR someone said that Debbie Cook had done some notes on one she did earlier. I searched her blog a few times but came up empty handed.
I also really like the dress on the back left.
Back the The Coat.

I am obsessing over that Dries van Noten dress too! But I've managed to restrain myself so far. Your idea to start with the raglan sleeve dress is a good one.
Dawn I think there is a link on burda style that shows you how to slash and spread a regular tshirt pattern for gathers on a vneck. Or there used to be might be worth looking.
Ok,I knew what I was looking for and I found it. If you click on the links in Debbies review you'll find the picture of how she drafted the top.
