The Mathilde Kimono Blouse & Dress Sewing Pattern by Maéli Paris is a versatile wrap-style design that can be sewn as a blouse, short dress or long dress.

With its straight, relaxed silhouette, elegant V-neckline and generous sleeves, Mathilde combines comfort with an easy, refined look. Choose between three-quarter or long sleeves and customize the closure with a belt, ties or a clean belt-free finish.

The simple shapes and generous proportions also make Mathilde particularly suitable for upcycling vintage sheets, curtains, tablecloths and duvet covers.
