The first style I am going to use for my Teacher Wardrobe/Mix & Match Uniform is a version of the bow blouse.
Here’s the inspirational style found on lolobu.com through Pinterest:

Pattern match:

My fabric:

I am a little concerned that each one is styled with jeans, but I’m going with my gut on this one. Rather than add pleats, I decided the fabric would be enough for visual interest. I didn’t have to do an FBA here. (I wonder if Burda Plus is drafted on C rather than B cups…) I cut 44 shoulders/bust, 46 waist/hem. No bicep adjustment for the jersey sleeve. No back waist either, as it isn’t fitted enough to need it. I may shorten it up before adding the jersey hem band. We’ll see how the test run goes. I’ll keep you posted!
Oh, this is going to be fantastic! I have never needed an FBA in Burda Plus knit patterns, and I ALWAYS need an FBA.
love that extra ease to make our lives easier!
Can’t wait!!
This rayon looks l-o-v-e-l-y – hope everything goes well for you!! xx
What gorgeous fabric and I like the pattern a lot too. Add a knit pencil skirt and you’ll be stylin’
