You've got the horizontal ruching there, just about. Didn't the original also have some vertical gathers? So that would require making the nickline slightly higher and adding some width to the front, in the middle.

Yeah I've taken the front rectangle out again now and will do a new firmer one, trying some more gathering.

Click on the picture to the bottom right, I just remembered it was Anne. You could make the cowl smaller if you don't want it as low.

Thanks
@Helen M
Another suggestion from my blog
"Ottobre Winter 2012 has smaller square, more fitted T-shirt, or same issue light gathers in front neck line. Agree with others…. Burda has very likely done something…but other than rifling through my huge stash of decades. can’t recall. Or modifying that odd cape/top from Burda 2020.01 issue? "

Had a rootle through my patterns and found a few which could be adapted to get the look, many long out of print of course

Yes looks quite a lot like the one Helen was suggesting from Style Arc except I already own it, and its in a good size range for me.
I think I might give that one a bash next.

There are some good options there, glad you found some you could try. A good rootle works wonders sometimes!!
