• Lila

  • Style Description:

    Lila is a woven blouse with a twist. View A features a center front seam with a pretty twist that cleverly forms into a bottom hem band. View B features the same lovely twist detail on the sleeve with a simple shirt-tail hem on the body. Both views feature a scooped neckline finished with a bias neck binding, a double layer back yoke and side bust darts. Sleeve styles are interchangeable giving you the option for two more style variations using the same pattern pieces.
