This pattern includes two versions both inspired by the 1960’s feminine and fun woman. Both versions are great pieces to create a base in your wardrobe.
The skirt is a slim-fitting pencil skirt that sits at the natural waist. It features gentle gathers in the front and darts in the back for shaping, and has a back kick vent.
The top has a princess seamed front with a yoke, and darts at the back for a close fit. It closes with an invisible zip and features a buttoned tab detail on the front yoke, and subtle curves at the front hemline.
Fabric recommendations:
For the summer time, use light materials as silk, cotton and viscose for the top, and the skirt will work so well in a cotton twill or a light wool. For the winter, use more heavy fabrics to get that warm feeling. Fabric with a bit of stretch will work well for both. However, none of the versions is suitable for jersey fabrics.
