Regalia Blouse by Sew House Seven - printed pattern

This is a physical, printed tissue paper pattern that will be shipped to your door. The Regalia Blouse by Sew House Seven manages to look effortless and casueal with all of its gathers, puffy sleeves and a high collar. The roomy fit of the bodice makes it so comfortable to wear. It pulls on over the head and ties at the back keyhole opening. It also features front and back yokes and a stand-up collar. There are two lengths and two sleeve designs to mix and match. Choose between a loose and flowy cropped hem to wear with high waist pants and skirts or a slightly longer tuck-in length blouse with an optional waist tie. The long sleeves (A) are gathered at the shoulder and narrow at the wrist while the short sleeves (B) are gathered at the shoulder and gathered into a cuff that lands just above the elbow. You can add an optional tulle sleeve head pouf to add a bit of volume to your sleeves. The Regalia looks best when sewn in a light-weight, woven fabric such as cotton voile or lawn but it also looks lovely in linen. Just be aware that looser weave fabrics such as linen and gauze will result in a slightly looser fitting garment.  Sizes 00 - 20 (Standard) OR  16 - 34 (Curvy) Check out a more detailed description for Sew House Seven sizing here. Recommended fabric This pattern is designed for lightweight woven fabrics such as cotton voile, cotton lawn and light-weight linens. The muse and initial vision was for Indian block printed voiles, however, we also love it in Swiss dot, chambray, cotton gauze and light weight linens. Just be aware that looser weave fabrics such as gauze and linen will result in a slightly looser fitting blouse.
