Sewing enthusiasts, the first monthly issue of the year is here!
It’s the perfect opportunity to wish you a wonderful year of sewing alongside us. The pop and retro trends of the 1960s are making a strong comeback. A-line dresses and more are adorned with elegant fabrics and striking prints in black and white or vibrant red combos. The classic is modernized with style: tweeds and bouclé fabrics are reimagined in bold cuts. Exclusively, there are two designs specially created for young women. For a more relaxed look, there are sporty cuts perfect for those who love a casual daily style. The Best Of selection features festive pieces to sew, embellished with sequins and shimmering fabrics. The standout model this season? A brown faux leather pair of "barrel" cut trousers— the must-have trend of the year, seen on every runway.
Sixties
Twiggy served as the muse for this collection, paying tribute to 1960s fashion with an updated touch of elegance and femininity.
The 116B cropped jacket is crafted from a stylish wool jacquard. We love the slightly high collar that adds an extra flair to the cut!
A strong winter trend: the 1960s striped sweater dress! The buttoned collar at the back of the neck and the cuff details are subtle and chic accents. Stylish and comfortable, it effortlessly complements any of your looks.
Trend: Modern Tweed
Simplified and contemporary cuts highlight the most classic of feminine materials: tweed!
The rather basic cut of the sweater 107 is elevated by a tweed fabric adorned with small scattered crystals. The result is sleek, modern, and simply stunning.
Wow! The mini dress 114 in sizes 140-176 is a must-have for fashion-forward teens. The vibrant fuchsia pink tweed is eye-catching. The piped pocket, golden buttons, and pearl trim along the overlay and neckline add a playful, chic touch.
Fashion Challenges
Sporty elements are the highlights of this collection. The relaxed cuts are effortlessly stylish and easy to mix and match for everyday wear.
Dress 122, made of a batik-inspired 1990s viscose satin, stands out with its side slits and pleated sleeves—details that are especially flattering.
The standout feature of Jacket 112? The hood quickly transforms into a relaxed collar that elegantly drapes over the shoulders. The checked wool blend adds a modern flair while ensuring a comfortable fit.
Best Of: Shine Bright with Style
