Blanca Flight Suit Sewing Pattern - Closet Core Patterns
The Blanca Flight Suit is a stylish, semi-fitted boiler suit sewing pattern inspired by vintage workwear. Designed by Closet Core Patterns, this versatile and highly customisable pattern allows you to create a unique, everyday wardrobe staple.
Blanca features a centre front zip, pleated back, and practical patch pockets that double as belt loops. The pattern includes options for a tie belt or a buckle belt for a more structured finish. Choose from long, tapered, or short sleeves, and style the legs straight, cropped, or tapered with a leg tab. You can also select between classic patch or zippered breast pockets to add your own personal touch.
Perfect for a range of fabrics, Blanca can be dressed up or down for a timeless, modern look.
