A charming sleeveless blouse pattern featuring a high stand collar with rows of elastic that create a smocked effect, decorative ties at the shoulder seams, and a matching elasticated hem band.
This versatile blouse is perfect for a range of occasions, offering comfort and style for:
Silhouette: a relaxed, boxy bodice gathered into a high elasticated stand collar and an elasticated hem band.
Neckline: a high stand collar with several stitched channels threaded with elastic, creating a soft, smocked effect.
Shoulder: Sleeveless design with topstitched shoulder seams accented by decorative ties sewn into the seams.
Hem: a band attached to the lower edge with several rows of elastic, gathering the hem for a comfortable fit.
Length: a cropped, waist-length blouse, perfect for pairing with high-waisted bottoms.
Intermediate. Involves creating multi-row elastic casings, attaching a stand collar, and constructing shoulder ties.
Choose lightweight fabrics with good drape and softness to best achieve the gathered details:
Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm.
Tip: To ensure the material remains stretchy in the areas of finished seams, stitch the cut pieces with a narrow zigzag or special stretchy stitch. To keep the bottom edge stretchy, overlock the hem with an overlock stitch, then attach it using a twin needle. The same applies to finishing other edges of the garment that should not lose elasticity. These recommendations do not apply to industrial production.
