The Paloma Top - PDF pattern

Sizes: UK 4-28 / US 2-26 / EU 32-56

The Paloma Top is a fun and stylish design that’s brimming with personality. With multiple adjustable features and a breezy fit, it’s perfect for feeling ‘put together’ on a warm summer’s day.

Intermediate sewers. If you're an ambitious beginner or tentative intermediate we recommend following our additional step-by-step guide. 

The Paloma Top is made with high quality finishings throughout - without using overlocking - which require precision and attention to detail. The result is a high end, polished garment that balances both design flare and beautiful finishings.

Construction techniques: Topstitch open seams, side slit, flat binding, delicate ties and channels, button loop fastening, hemming

Materials Needed

Suitable fabrics: This style works best in lightweight woven fabrics that are stable, breathable and easy to handle. The design features narrow channels and fine ties, so it’s important to choose a fabric that isn’t too thick or bulky, allowing the ties to move smoothly and sit neatly once threaded through. Lighter shirting fabrics are ideal here, offering enough structure to hold the shape while remaining soft and workable.
