More Soho! I had to share this Soho blouse made with chiffon on the lower half. I found this arrowhead chiffon a while back and wasn’t sure what to do with it. But the Soho skirt is pretty perfect for chiffon! Especially with summer coming up. I’m happy with how the blouse turned out, but I really wished I had had enough fabric to make the arrowheads go up or down instead of side to side.
I paired the chiffon with a black cotton fabric.
This is View A of the Soho Blouse, with a straight hem (versus the angled hem versions I have already showed you.) Just a slight variation to make the top a little more versatile!
I hope you aren’t sick of the Soho blouse yet! I have a few more to share PLUS I’m planning a sewalong (a SOHO-along, ha ha *slaps knee*) that I’m excited about! (In May, woo!)
I love the style of the Soho Blouse, but for some reason it makes the model’s bust look flat. I have a small bust and I would not want that. Could the “V” of the top of the blouse be made a sharper angle (smaller)?
I really admire your sewing skills and general spunk but… it has to be said: that Soho top is just not flattering on you. I’m not sure who it would flatter, frankly. You have a wonderful figure — I’d kill to look like you do. And that gorgeous blonde ‘do…so much to envy! Is that chiffon cut on the cross grain or something? Because it’s adding volume at the wrong line, making you look small-busted and full-waisted. The length is even making your hips look bigger… but they AREN’T big! I’m sorry to sound so critical… we all get carried away with the word “love” and the excessive use of exclamation points, but sometimes we just need to be honest.
Your blog, however, and personal style, are wonderful representations of your creative spirit. You’re a beautiful girl, and your baby is beautiful too. (In my humble opinion.)
I’m really keen for the sewalong!!! I’m a little stuck as I’ve never lined anything before, and I can’t wait to finish it and wear it! Mega cute design <3
