14-1 STANDARD Fitted lapel collar blouse in 3 versions

The 14-1 STANDARD is the blouse that earns its name: a timeless, fitted design with a classic lapel collar that works just as well on its own as it does layered under a blazer. Front and back darts shape the silhouette close to the body, while a single welt pocket on the chest adds a tailored, menswear-inspired detail. Choose between three sleeve options, from sleeveless for warmer days to short sleeves or long sleeves finished with a buttoned cuff and easy sleeve vent. Made up in cotton or a soft silk blouse fabric, this pattern becomes the kind of staple you reach for again and again – and our family has definitely done so throughout the years!

Key Features:

Lapel Collar: A classic collar with a gorge line seam for a crisp, tailored neckline that frames the face.

Three Sleeve Versions: Sleeveless with a finished armhole facing, short sleeves, or long sleeves with a buttoned cuff, all made from the same base pattern.

Single Welt Pocket: A neat welt pocket on the chest, sewn with lining and fabric pocket bags for a professional finish.

Front and Back Darts: Bust and waist darts front and back shape the blouse close to the body.

Easy Sleeve Vent: Long sleeves finish with a simple bias-bound vent and a buttoned cuff for a clean, shirt-like closure.

Flat-Felled Seams: Shoulder and side seams are sewn as flat-felled seams for a durable, professional inside finish.

Button Front: A full button placket down the front, with 4 buttons for the sleeveless and short-sleeve versions or 6 for the long-sleeve version.

Available in sizes 34 to 50, the STANDARD blouse is a versatile pattern for cotton, silk or any stable blouse-weight fabric, ready to become a wardrobe essential.
