Two views, cute details, and a very clean finish.

The Camille Top is a fitted, fully lined sleeveless top with a shaped bodice, a defined waist and a soft flare toward the high hip. It is designed for woven fabrics and includes two views built from the same base, with two quite different personalities.

Camille draws inspiration from current ready-to-wear trends influenced by the traditional Chinese qipao.

Design Features

Both views are shaped with front and back princess seams for a close but comfortable fit through the bust and waist, before releasing gently. The top is fully lined and finished by bagging, which means the inside is as clean as the outside, with no exposed seams. Both views close at the neck with a collar band and tie.
  • View A: Keyhole opening below the collar and a center front closure with fabric-covered buttons and delicate loops. Polished, feminine and a little special.
  • View B: Asymmetric overlapping fronts secured with ties, creating a diagonal line and a bit of movement. More graphic but equally interesting.

Suggested Fabrics

Light to medium weight wovens with structure and a little drape: linen, linen blends, cotton poplin, chambray, shirting and similar fabrics. The cover sample is made from cotton.

Avoid fabrics that are too thick. Camille is designed for woven fabrics only.

Sizing

Available in sizes 34-60, in two size ranges:
  • 34-46: drafted for a B/C cup
  • 46-60: drafted for a DD cup
Choose the size closest to your bust measurement. For size 46, use the 34-46 range if you are a C cup or below, and the 46-60 range if you are a D cup or above.

Drafted for a height of 5'5" / 1m65. If your measurements are at least one full size outside the chart, smaller than 34 or larger than 60, I grade at no extra cost.

What's Included

  • Layered PDFs: Print-at-home (A4 and US Letter), A0, and Projector formats
  • Both views: View A and View B
  • Cutter's must
  • Order of operations
  • Detailed step-by-step illustrated instructions in English and French
Seam allowances are included and indicated at every step. You receive the pattern instantly after completing the purchase.

I am 5'3" / 1m60 and wear the floral, polka dot and denim samples in size 34 with no alterations. Lilli is 5'5"/1m65, she wears View A in a floral cotton in size 50 at the shoulders progressively graded to 52 at the hips. Pauline is 5'7"/1m70 and she wears View B in an olive viscose/linen blend in size 44 with 3/4"/2cm of added length and no shaping at the waist.

Sizing

I draft and grade my sewing patterns for a height of 5’5” (1.65m) from size 34 to 60 (see below). When applicable, the size range is divided between 34-46, developed for B/C cup size, and 46-60, developed for a DD cup size.

If your body measurements are at least one size outside of the size range, I grade up or down at no cost.

See the sizing page for more information.
