Tilda and her pretty collars, the blouse that will become an essential part of your wardrobe!
Good morning!
Ahhh this Tilda , she never ceases to amaze you! When I designed this pretty blouse, I had a specific idea in mind: a garment that you could easily make your own, a classic that was anything but basic. I wanted to make this pattern a must-have in the sense that it would offer you different styles, different interpretations, a somewhat chameleon-like piece that you would enjoy sewing and re-sewing, without getting tired of it.
And the name of the boss is not insignificant, my inspiration that completes the series of heroines of the collection IN THE MOOD FOR FAUVE is Tilda Swinton. She is one of the most disturbing actresses I know. A woman of a thousand faces, she is never where we expect her and she gives to each character she plays a facet very different from what she has been able to offer before. She is singular, she is unique, and yet she can interpret all the roles.
With its pretty pleats and sleeve length variations, the free Tilda blouse is a lovely base for experimenting with different fabrics. But these pretty collars are there to take your sewing experience even further: 5 collar variations, 5 very different styles, it's a much bigger playground!

Tilda blouse with gathered collar in cotton viscose Louna navy blue Eglantine et Zoé

A range of possibilities that ranges from the most sensible to the most poetic: a Peter Pan collar, a large pointed collar, a gathered collar, a sailor collar and an officer collar... You won't be bored!
The beautiful Tilda is available in a pocket format , it sizes from 34 to 52, the seam allowances are included and the pattern pieces do not overlap on the board. Of course, we have filmed a video tutorial dedicated to all its variations , which will complement the Tilda step-by-step video.
After all the wonderful Tildas you've shared on Instagram , I can't wait to see what you have in store for me around this myriad of collars!
And I'll see you very soon, so that we can get to know each facet of Tilda better.
