Betty – Elegant Blouse with Front Pleats

Sew your own flowy and feminine blouse with the “Betty” pattern – perfect for office wear, everyday outfits or special occasions!

“Betty” is a loose-fitting blouse with pleats on one side of the front neckline and a yoke with box pleat at the back. The wide hem can either fall loosely or be gathered with elastic for a more shaped look.

The wide sleeves come in four different lengths and can be finished with an elasticated hem to create a gentle balloon effect. The round neckline is finished with a facing, and bust darts ensure a flattering fit.

The look of “Betty” depends on your fabric choice: Viscose and crepe georgette give it a soft, flowing drape – ideal for summer or layered outfits. For a more delicate look, the sleeves can be sewn from chiffon, adding a playful and semi-transparent touch to the blouse.
