A pretty underwear that allows everything...hello pretty BLUSH! (and its video tutorial...)
Some projects keep turning over in your mind, but you tell yourself you'll get to them later...and that's the story of this new pattern! I'm introducing BLUSH, Maison Fauve's new arrival that will be your little secret to slip on. And because I love you very much, and sewing should be easy peasy, the video tutorial is at the end of this article!
When the Tamara pattern came out this winter, several of you wanted to sew this pretty dress in somewhat sheer fabrics. And you asked me for advice on how to line it. But it's not easy to line this type of pattern without altering its cut, and especially without using too much fabric. Similarly, when I sewed a new version in the spring in a lemon fabric on a white background, you were concerned about how to manage the sheerness. And well... I don't know about you, but I have a big soft spot for openwork fabrics, broderie anglaise, lace, guipure, voile... light or heavily embroidered fabrics that have in common that they sometimes reveal a lot of your body underneath. And the option of lining your garment can be tedious, or even unsuitable, which will alter the drape of your pretty outfit. A slip dress, also adaptable as a camisole, is the cleverest solution. And this idea that was on my mind, well, I rolled up my sleeves and made some room for it! I saw it as a smart basic that would quickly become a wardrobe essential, because whether it's under a ready-to-wear garment that you love but the brand didn't think to include a slip, or a handmade garment in a fabric you adore but that might show too much, the lovely BLUSH pattern is perfect!
A pronounced V-neckline, but wearable with a bra... and since you're sewing it, adapt your strap to the desired look. I sewed my 2 versions in the sublime mother-of-pearl and navy viscose crepes from Eglantine and Zoé, which means my versions are also perfectly wearable without anything over them, if you want to add a lingerie touch to your outfit. Because even on its own, BLUSH is the perfect slightly sexy all-purpose top to slip under a cardigan or wear with a loose sweater. With French seam finishes, and the option of adding a small ring or not, it's a very neat little piece, and if you choose a precious fabric, it will be a little jewel to slip under all your outfits ;) I wear it under my PANAMA blouse, and under my ZENITH dress (a freshly made marvel that I will show you very, very soon...). So, under which little jewel will you wear your BLUSH... anything is allowed!
