Introducing the Calypso Blouse

I've teased this pattern with the release of both the Explorer Shorts and the Librarian Skirt - I'm delighted to introduce the Calypso Blouse, a cap-sleeve, tie-front blouse designed for effortless style and carefree comfort.

The blouse is cropped to waist length in the back, and designed to sit just above the waist at centre front for just a glimpse of midriff.

The distinctive wing collar is integrated with the blouse front for a clean, elegant finish.

This versatile piece can be worn with a button fastening as a separate top, or layered over dresses as a breezy, bolero-style overblouse.

With its integrated collar and sleeves, the Calypso Blouse is a surprisingly speedy make - and a great way to use up leftover yardage or shorter lengths.

Wear with shorts or strappy dresses for carefree summer chic; or channel Rizzo from Grease, paired with a pencil skirt or cigarette pants.

The Calypso blouse is set to be a summer wardrobe staple! I’ve already made several iterations, and it’s top of my vacation packing list!
