La blouse Tempete Maison Fauve

Combining clean lines and sophistication, the Tempête blouse has a very feminine drape. The pattern plays on pleats, proportions and a trompe l’oeil collar effect. The sleeves can be long, and constructed with stitched pleats and a buttoned cuff, like a blouse. You can also sew the Tempête blouse without sleeves, with impeccable armhole finishing, for a very elegant little top to wear for any occasion.

Sewing level: intermediate, the technical aspects of the pattern are: sewing pleats, fitting a sleeve, sewing a cuff on a 2-part sleeve, fitting an invisible zip. The sleeveless version eliminates the technical part of assembling the sleeve and cuff.

Size: from 6-24 (34 to 52), for a height of 1m65
