Introducing a women's sewing pattern for an elegant blouse featuring a chic V-neck, a gracefully fitted waistline with refined front pleats, and voluminous gathered sleeves.
This versatile blouse is perfect for a range of settings, making it an excellent choice for:
Silhouette: Fitted through the bust and waist, with the front pleats released below the waist into a soft, flattering flare.
Neckline: a graceful V-neckline offering a flattering and elegant silhouette.
Waist: a defined, fitted waistline shaped with elegant front pleats and subtle elasticized shirring at the back for comfort.
Sleeves: Long, voluminous sleeves featuring delicate gathering at the sleeve cap and an elasticated casing at the wrist for a chic balloon effect.
Closure: Pullover design with no visible closure, creating a clean and seamless front.
Intermediate. Requires precision in forming front pleats, working with elastic thread for back shirring, and carefully setting gathered sleeves.
Choose light to medium-weight blouse fabrics with good drape to best showcase the design's features:
If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, seam allowances are not included. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm; hem allowance for garment bottom and sleeve bottom – 2.0 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90cm to 150cm) to determine how much material you will need (do not forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces). When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!
