This Simplicity 1590 pattern was straightforward to do and feels comfortable to wear. I did struggle with the fabric I was using, it is a sort of silky searsucker, not sure if it is viscose or polyester. It tended to slip when cutting out, frays a lot, puckers when machine sewing and the peplum curve was a bit fiddly. But I am pleased with it...
It doesn't look as baggy on me as it does on the mannequin, must have put a bit of weight on since I set the mannequin up! If made with a cotton fabric this blouse would be very easy.
The next blouse I make will be a very simple one. I want blouses in fabric that drapes nicely even though it is fiddly to sew.
