The In The Folds Collins top is a loose-fitting trapeze-shaped top designed for woven fabrics. It has an A-line shape and features a round neck, panel lines, a high-low hem and a centre-back opening, with a button and loop closure. The Collins top is versatile and can be perfectly paired with skirts or trousers.

The pattern has two versions.
View A: this includes a three-piece raglan sleeve designed with extra volume, which creates a fun and interesting shape. The neckline is finished with bias binding.

View B: this is sleeveless, and the neckline and armholes are finished with an all-in-one facing for a really clean and professional finish.

 

PATTERN DETAILS & SIZING:

All seam allowances are included in the pattern.

The pattern comes in an envelope along with an illustrated step-by-step explanation guide.

The pattern is available in 10 sizes: UK 6 to UK 24 (US 2 to US 20) (EU 34 to EU 52)

The pattern is drafted for a B cup bust. Check the finished garment measurements chart in the pattern, before deciding whether or not you need to make an adjustment.

Patterns are drafted for height of 170cm (5’7″) and include a ‘lengthen / shorten line’ so you can make adjustments to suit your height.

 

FABRIC SUGGESTIONS

The Collins top is suitable for a range of different fabrics. Your choice of fabric will govern the silhouette you get.

Light to mid-weight fabrics such as: linen, linen blends, cotton, gauze or chambray. For a softer silhouette, consider sateen, silk (crepe de chine or habotai) or viscose (rayon).

Softer fabrics will drape over the bust (and create soft flowy sleeves), while stiffer fabrics will create a more voluminous and structured silhouette.

Due to the number of panels in the Collins top, it is a great pattern to use to experiment with colour blocking and stripe direction.
