Blouson Sunset Maison Fauve

Because even when the good weather arrives you have to wrap up when the sun sets, the Sew me the Sun collection needed a pretty jacket. And it was a teddy-style jacket that I thought of to enrich the Maison Fauve wardrobe.

A jacket that has details that make it unique: a beautiful collar to wear turned up or folded down, a cuff that is not elasticated but with a strap for less of a sporty feel, and the option to sew SUNSET in any fabric version or with ribbed finishes to give your garment a style that suits you. Buttoned or zipped under the flap, the choice is yours!

The finishing touches and technical aspects : the SUNSET jacket is lined, with welt pockets (a simplified assembly), a zip under tab, raglan sleeves with belted cuffs, a collar and a belt overlayed at the front.
