   already made 2 Holly blouses, and just bought the material for my 3rd, my 1st blouse I made up as per full pattern instructions in Viscose, light drapy and really nice blouse, goes well with both jeans and ponte pants. qute dressy for work, yet has a casual feel. love the neck and tie detail.
   my 2nd holly blouse, I ommited the tie detail and made in a scuba lepoard print, really nice, and has been put away for winter, definately a more statement piece than the viscose.
   my 3rd will be in black viscose made up in the full pattern.
   had to email style arc about the neck detail and realised I had not aligned it correctly, but that was the only issue, quite an easy sew, but definately need to iron every piece to ensure they go nice and flat. goes together perfectly.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
