Design
The polo shirt is reinterpreted in a loose oversized style. For a long time, it was considered a stuffy piece for snobs, but if you go for the right cut and the right fabrics, you’ll be totally on trend. Your polo shirt should meet these three points: it must be loose-fitting, have long sleeves, and have a contrasting collar. Check, check and check we would say, because The Pippa Polo meets all these points. So get to the sewing machine and prove how cool polo shirts can look.
You want the perfect fit?
There is nothing more frustrating than when a homemade garment ends up fitting poorly. That’s over now! Because when you take the time to sew a garment yourself, you deserve it to be perfect. That’s why our sewing patterns are now also available “Customized to your measurements”. How does it work? Order the sewing pattern “Customized to your measurements”, measure yourself according to our instructions and enter your current measurements in our form. Our designers then construct your individual pattern. You will receive it within 1 to maximum 2 weeks after filling out the form as paper pattern or digital pattern by email and can start sewing without fear that your garment will not fit in the end as expected.
