Stiffer materials will result in a boxier fit and fabrics with more drape will provide a slinkier appearance. The top front band is constructed with two layers of fabric for more stability and clean finishes. Light-to-mid weight woven fabrics will be the easiest to sew this quick project due to the double layer front band, French seams, and spaghetti straps. Think about cottons, linens, & silks for an elegant and comfortable camisole worn during your day or night! FIT RECOMMENDATIONS The 24/7 Cami is meant to be fitted at the upper chest and easeful around the waist and hips. The shaping for the bust comes from the horizontal seam across the chest. The seam is not intended to be directly across the apex, but sit comfortably above. Drafted with a straight hem, the 24/7 Cami tends to be slightly longer at the side seams depending on your size and fabrication. Intended to be paired with the They & Them Shorts, the camisole’s length is meant to fall at your high hips (about 3” [7.6cm] below the waist). Shorten or lengthen following the designated lines on your pattern pieces. SIZE GUIDE Find the size that corresponds closest to your personal measurements in the size chart below. Patterns are designed for a 5’8” (172cm) tall person. The following measurements are needed to determine your size: HIGH BUST | The circumference above your chest, under arms, and below your shoulder blades FULL BUST | The fullest part of your chest, often times across the apex WAIST | The smallest part of your torso, directly underneath your rib cage and above your hip bones LOW HIP | The widest part of your hips, patterns drafted for 8” below the waistline TECHNICAL SKETCH
