Maison Fauve - Skyline Blouse / Shirt
About the Skyline Blouse / Shirt
If there is only one shirt in your wardrobe, it will be Skyline! Its cut is timeless; straight but not loose. The length is perfect to be worn outside as well as tucked into pants. The Skyline shirt is distinguished by its very Fauve details: stitched pleats on the front, collar, back and cuffs but also by its duo of classic collar and Claudine collar, and a possibility to sew an opening in the back. There is a small triangle of skin that reveals itself without showing too much. With this pattern, you can bring something extra to your "essential shirt".
