For Ermine, we started with the austere route with simple set-in sleeves, a round neckline, separate button placket, and bias tape for the neckline finish. But then it was impossible not to add a romantic flourish to this blouse! The triangular yoke features sweet gathers at the bottom. Stay understated and make Ermine in a simple solid or turn up the sound with a print explosion. The outfit options are myriad in combination with trousers or a skirt. The more cheerful, the better!

Fabric suggestions
Ermine works well in all kinds of different fabrics, from drapey viscose (crepe), lyocell, silk to somewhat stiffer fabrics like poplin, chambray, lace, and fine or baby wale corduroy. This pattern is a treat in solids and colourful prints alike. Wovens will produce the nicest result though given the blouse's delicate details.
