Fabric Recommendations

Choose knit fabrics with medium stretch for optimal fit and drape:

Stretch velvet

Additional Supplies

Elastic thread

Cutter's Must

From main fabric:
1. Back – 1 piece on fold
2. Front – 1 piece on fold
3. Sleeve – 2 pieces

Tip: Cut pieces from knit fabrics should be stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. The hem allowance is topstitched with a twin needle or on a coverstitch machine to maintain elasticity. You can also stitch details directly on a 3- or 4-thread overlocker.

Sewing Instructions

Mark and stitch darts on the front. Press the dart excess upwards.
Stitch shoulder and side seam allowances, overlock, and press towards the back.
On the sleeve, mark the pleats and the elastic thread attachment line. Form the pleats according to the markings. The pleat depths are directed downwards. Secure the pleats along the sleeve cap. Stitch with elastic thread. Stitch the sleeve seam, overlock, and press. Set the sleeves into the armholes. Overlock and press the seam.
Overlock the bottom edge of the garment, the neckline edge, and the bottom edge of the sleeve. Fold to the wrong side, press, and topstitch.
