Flare Top mini Dress

It’s short – very short even. Actually, at first I thought it would be a simple shirt. But then, when I held the fabric in my hands and put the pattern on it… Yes, I just had to lengthen it a bit. In the summer I will probably run around with a Hotpants underneath, for the photos the skirt from last week was allowed to stay right on the bottom – only pushed up a little 😉

You almost can’t see, can you? 😉  The Flare Top is one of my absolute favourite patterns for spring & summer. It is so beautifully airy and especially with the sewn-in bra I never have to worry whether my breasts will hang down *snicker*. Clearly with shorter straps I can push them even higher, but I for my part do not find that necessary at all. Quite honestly, I am even glad that I have only so little busts – as a teenager with twice as much was not always so easy, especially when it comes to clothes. Today I can walk around without a bra (which I actually do most of the time). Nevertheless it is comfortable if there is an insert sewn into it, so you can run around and twirl it a bit more freely…

The super nice Ajour knit here was sponsored by Schnittverhext and is soooo soft, just like you expect from a cashmere or similar. The super fine Ajour pattern makes it even more summery, but you don’t have to worry about looking through it.

As a bra insert I used a matching Heavy Romanite, which is so stable and thick, I really like the fabric! Slowly the bushes in the background start to blossom, the first buds and many small soon to be leaves are already visible! So nature tells me definitely that it’s time for summer clothes. I am ready for the coming seasons 😀

And because it’s Thursday again, the Flare Top is available as #PatternoftheWeek at half price until Monday. So that you can dance through spring/summer with the great summer shirts very soon. Mama and I love the pattern, I hope you will too <3

Love, Carina
