There has come a point in my life where I have realised that my dress sense is akin to that of a magpie. If it's bright and shiny, I want it on my body.
I'm ok with this.
The Pattern
Introducing my latest bright and shiny, the Kate Bias Top by Just Patterns
This is so beautifully cut and for some crazy reason, the pattern is only $3AUD. So actually, what are you waiting for.
This is my second time making this pattern and it's as good as I remember.
The Fabric
Luscious silk satin in a beautiful purple hue and 19mm weight, which I purchased from Home Craft Textiles.
I will never get over the feel and look of silk satin cut on the bias. It's just everything that is beautiful and wonderful about fabric and it soaks up colour like nothing else.
The Details
This bias top is free of darts, is cut on the bias and fully lined.
It is held at the shoulders with bias cut spaghetti straps and hemmed with a narrow hem.
It has a lovely soft V shaped neckline and is figure flattering but not form fitting.
Wearing with
And hey! My whole outfit is me-made! That's happening more and more these days and I find that so encouraging and exciting!
I've paired my silk cami with this self drafted sequinned skirt:
And my silk organza trench coat that I made using Simplicity 8554
Final Thoughts
A quick easy make, that looks and feels fancy and chic. This is my third silk cami and it will not be my last!
