Sew Your Own Sailor Blouse with a Statement Collar – for the Office, Leisure, and a Seaside Breeze
With the FIETE pattern, you’re guaranteed to turn heads. The sailor blouse with its striking nautical-style collar adds a casually elegant touch to your outfit – without any fuss. FIETE simply pulls over the head without any fastening, making it not only stylish but also really comfortable.
Whether worn with jeans, culottes, or a skirt, this statement-collar blouse looks fantastic for both everyday wear and special occasions. And the best part: It’s airy, relaxed, and absolutely sewing-friendly.
Sewing a Woven Fabric Blouse with a Sailor Collar – Simple & Stylish
FIETE is perfect for light to medium-weight woven fabrics. Its straight cut gives it a beautifully relaxed drape – ideal for hot summer days, but also a real highlight in the office or at your next garden party.
To ensure the facings hold their shape beautifully, we recommend reinforcing thinner fabrics with lightweight interfacing (e.g. H180).
FIETE Sailor Blouse Pattern: Relaxed, Airy, and Easy to Sew
The FIETE pattern is wonderfully beginner-friendly. The blouse comes completely without a zipper or buttons and is simply pulled over the head. This makes it an ideal project even for those who don’t have much sewing experience yet.
For a good fit, subtle bust darts are included from size 46. So sewing your FIETE is completely straightforward – and if you’re unsure, a test garment can help you achieve the perfect fit.
Tip: You can easily lengthen the blouse with a ruler if you’d like more length. Two hem options are available in the pattern.
