Sewing pattern tutorial: the Cosmopolitan playsuit/dress
Combining an ultra comfortable cut and a very elaborate construction, the Cosmopolitan sewing pattern allows you to sew a playsuit or a dress that has a unique look and lots of pretty details:
-
Pleats and inserts that will gently redefine the silhouette, playing on volumes and proportions, and pockets for style and comfort when worn
-
A very flattering V-shaped front and back neckline, with 2 neckline depths to wear your Cosmopolitan alone (the small neckline version is bra compatible), with a small top, or over a swimsuit
-
The possibility of sewing a dress or playsuit
-
Impeccable finishes as the bust is fully lined, and the invisible zip is neatly finished.
The beautiful Cosmopolitan will be precious in tweed or jacquard, all fabrics in a medium-weight like gabardine, elegant and timeless in tailored wool.
