Inspiration...Silk Blouse

 Have you been thinking about your fall/winter wardrobe?   I have a bit.  It is almost too hot to think much about it but I am trying.  Here is a blouse that I really like the abstract nature of the print:


This is the Scottie Abstract-Print Silk Blouse by Lafayette 148 New York.  Price tag: $798.00.  Details: approximately 27-inches long, spread collar with consealed button front, long sleeves, button cuffs, box pleat back yoke, relaxed fit, silk/elastane, dry clean only.

Looks like a typical button-down shirt with some minor changes.  I have this pattern fitted already:


This is the Classic Shirt pattern by Liesl & Co.   This is a well drafted pattern and I highly recommend it.  Here ise a tutorial for doing the hidden button placket -   How to Make a Hidden Button Placket.

You might want to check out this top on the Neiman Marcus website.  The buttons are a little different near the collar and the cuffs are a little different.  

Hope you are inspired to make something beautiful.

Happy Stitching!
