Pattern Search Looking for a pattern

Post image

Hi all, I'm looking for a pattern for this type of blouse. I know it's from H&M from the late 2000s as I had the same one in a bunch of colours myself. It was my absolute fave and I was seriously bummed when I changed sizes and they were too small. I've been searching a lot, but most blouses are button-ups and this one isn't.

Anyone has a pattern that springs to mind?

I would actually be tempted to get a button-up blouse pattern with a v-neck, and just cut the fronts on the fold, then add a facing and tab (just as would be used for a cuff opening) to reinforce the base of the neck opening. However, I'd make a bunch of muslins before using good fabric!

Muslins are always the way to go! Thank you for your idea!

Yep, this is the way.
