*** Please note this listing is for a SEWING PATTERN not RTW lingerie. ***
The Xo bra has four gorgeous silhouette variations plus three strap options. Mix and match your chosen style and straps to customise the bra to your hearts content. You can make the most of the style lines by using a contrast fabric like sheer stretch mesh or lace for the upper cups, it's really easy to make this pattern fun and unique.
The pattern is drafted for a B-D cup (a difference of 2-4" between your bust and under bust measurements), but I do have a tutorial on my YouTube channel on how to do a bust adjustment here: https://youtu.be/oWB73amZFAc
Skill Level:
Intermediate. If you are new to sewing bras don't let 'intermediate' put you off! There are sooo many photos and step by step instructions which simplifies the process of sewing this pattern. Skills you may find useful (or will learn on the job) are sewing with various lingerie elastics such as FOE and picot and sewing with stretch fabrics.
Supplies //
The supplies needed are in the listing photos, along with the recommended fabrics/notions.
Sizes //
The sizing info is in the listing images.
I recommend you sew a test garment in similar fabrics to check size and fit before sewing in your best materials.
Included is a sewing glossary, a supplies check list, information on how to take your measurements and a 'plan your make page' which you can use to plan your fabrics. This pattern comes with a 48 page instruction booklet, of full colour instructions. But don't fear about printing it all out! There is a helpful contents page which makes it easy to print (if indeed you do print your instructions too) the necessary pages. The pattern is printable on US letter and A4 size paper across 7 pages. Due to the small pattern pieces for this style, there is no need to tape pages together, yay!
The pattern includes the bra only, the panties pictured in the photos with the bra on the stand are the Chloe thong pattern, sold separately.
