Blouse 181-L — blouse with bell sleeves and peplum waist
Polka dot blouse pattern with long bell sleeves and a gathered peplum waist, for office and transitional-season lines.
Blouse with a round neckline, long bell sleeves that flare out from the elbow, and a body fitted to the waist where a gathered peplum begins to give the hem fullness, in a small polka dot print on a dark green background.
The loose, light drape of the fabric suggests a viscose or fine crepe, which holds the peplum gather and the flare of the bell sleeves without adding weight; it sells well in office and transitional-season lines and pairs with plain dark pants or jeans. Sew the peplum separately from the body so the gather at the waist can be adjusted more easily.
It comes in 8 sizes (XS to 4XL) with the industrial grading already done: pick the sizes you need on the product page, or buy the full size range in one go. Delivered as an A4 PDF to print at home and a true-scale plotter PDF (90, 120 or 150 cm wide); DXF/AAMA, Optitex (PDS), marker (MRK) or Audaces (ADS) files for cutting directly in CAD are available on request. Digital download within 24 hours of payment confirmation.
Professional sewing pattern for women, approved with a sewn sample, with the full industrial size range available. Sizes are chosen on the product page (the base price covers the standard size selection and each extra size adds a small surcharge); the CAD formats include the full size range.
