Description
The Tribeca blouse/dress is a pattern that under its classic exterior will offer you the opportunity to let your creativity speak. The model allows you to play with materials, colors, and transparency of fabrics. Its cut-outs with studied positioning nicely underline the bust. Numerous variations are available: as a blouse or a shirt, as a dress with or without buttons on the front, with or without decorative bias to underline the yoke bands. Its cut is slightly fitted, for a feminine and comfortable fall.
Sewing level: intermediate to advanced, the technical points are the meticulous placement of the yokes and bias strips, the ripstop slit with the assembly of the cuff for the buttoned cuff version and the placement of the bias neckline, the button placket for the buttoned front dress/blouse version
INCLUDING SEAM ALLOWANCES (1 CM).

Lightweight fabrics (80 to 200 g/m2) with more or less hold depending on the desired result. Be careful that your fabric marks well with the iron and does not deform too much: a viscose, a tencel, a cotton, a crepe, poplin, satin, or twill. The openwork fabrics will also be interesting for this model especially since the cleanliness of the neckline is achieved with a bias.
