ELYETTE is a blouse (or jacket) with a shirt-blouse spirit that can be made with a mandarin collar or a neckline bias. The sleeves are set-in, but fairly wide and without ease at the sleeve head (shirt style). They can be 3/4 length or long (in two parts: upper and lower), taken in by four pleats and finished with a cuff. Small patch pockets on the front echo the sleeve pleats. A wide hem can serve as a casing to draw the bottom in with a cord.

Suggested Fabrics : We recommend using light- to medium-weight fabrics such as cotton voile, poplin, gabardine, denim, and jacquard. Choose your fabric based on whether you intend to wear Elyette as a jacket or a short-sleeved shirt.
