Easy to wear, quick to sew, and full of the thoughtful details that define its style - this is the FOLIO blouse. The front bodice is highlighted by two elegant pleats, which can be embellished with jewel-style buttons (or left plain). The neckline is open, and the three sleeve options allow you to enjoy your pattern all year round. The design can be sewn in a wide variety of fabrics, depending on the look you want to achieve. The long-sleeved version features a beautiful mock-buttoned cuff, offering the opportunity to play with contrasting fabrics.
UK sizes 6–24 (FR 34–52), drafted for a height of 165 cm (5’5”). The finished garment measurement chart is available in the product photos.
Sewing level: BEGINNER if you choose easy-to-sew fabrics such as cotton poplin, dupion or linen, and make the sleeveless or short-sleeved version. Intermediate if you opt for fluid or slippery fabrics, or the long-sleeved version. The main technical aspects are sewing the pleats accurately, buttonholes, and constructing the concealed edge-to-edge cuff hidden beneath a pleat.
The margins of seams are included and are 1cm.
