Maison Fauve - Tribeca Blouse and Dress

About the Tribeca Dress and Blouse

The Tribeca blouse/dress is a classic pattern with endless opportunity to let your creativity speak. The design allows you to play with materials, colors, and transparency of fabrics. Its cut-outs are positioned nicely underline the bust. Numerous variations are available: as a blouse or a shirt, as a dress with or without buttons on the front, with or without decorative bias to underline the yoke bands. Its cut is slightly fitted, for a feminine and comfortable fall.

The Fabric

For your Tribeca select lightweight fabrics (80 to 200 g/m2) with more or less hold depending on the desired result. Be careful that your fabric marks well with the iron and does not deform too much: a viscose, a tencel, a cotton, a crepe, poplin, satin, or twill. The openwork fabrics will also be interesting for this model especially since the cleanliness of the neckline is achieved with a bias.
