The Vintage Model: The “Kate” Skirt


The 1990s were a decade of possibilities, made up of a whirlwind of colors, attitudes, and audacity that continues to inspire. It was a decade of paradoxes, where the refined minimalism of Calvin Klein cohabited with the baroque opulence of Gianni Versace or the decadent romanticism of Alexander McQueen. Between self-assumed sensuality and elegant restraint, the nineties celebrated excess and simplicity in equal measure.
The 132 “Kate” skirt is exceptionally charming with its understated elegance. The fashion of the 1990s combined boldness and casualness, with sensuality and comfort. Straight cuts dominate, as in this lingerie-inspired skirt with its pure lines, open slit for greater ease, and satin fabrics. Worn with a t-shirt, it embodies the soft contrast typical of the decade.
La Dolce Vita: Details and Italian Charm


The elegance and timeless charisma of the great Italian film divas inspire this summer's fashion. La Dolce vita takes shape here with light, summery silhouettes, imbued with a breath of drama and subtle details on sew-on pieces for women and men.
The men's 121 t-shirt revisits elegance with an inset collar and V-neckline. It's simpler to make than a polo cut, yet no less refined and stylish in elegant black.
Bonus: the pattern is in pink on the cutting board.
Bellissima! The dress 115 is summery as can be, and we love the embroidered smocking on the back (more on this in the magazine). The play of stripes, reminiscent of Portofino parasols, is splendid.
The extra touch? Thin straps to tie ribbon-style!
Summer Fun: Sporty Looks & Chic Styles All in One


A sporty touch in a chic spirit! Modern batik prints, striking contrasts, sharp details, and mesh or flowing fabrics make up this collection of feminine pieces, perfect for summer and including Curvy sizes.
The 104 A maxi-dress, a summer must-have with batik fabric, is an ode to freshness. The waist is emphasized by a thin elastic band, making the look as natural as it is feminine.
The 125 sleeveless blouse, sewn in a chic, feminine striped fabric, is a bold piece ideal for summer. It ensures a distinguished silhouette, which can be accessorized as shown here or worn open under a more basic top.
Amazons of the Future


Metallic fabrics adorn unexpected cuts, revealing a new vision of fashion both sophisticated and refined. Between futuristic brilliance and minimalist lines, these silhouettes assert a bold style, where modernity rhymes with elegance.
Ideal for a ceremony, or for all those who love chic everyday looks, the 114 blouse stands out for the neckline section caught in a waist loop. The silky fabric, adorned with small diamonds, is unusual and exquisite.
The 108 midi skirt mixes things up for a bold touch! Sewn in fine poplin, it flares out from the waist with wide pleats and features XL cargo pockets on the sides. The result? An ultra-contemporary silhouette.
Best Of for the Beach and the Editor's Favorite Pieces


The Best Of mini collection offers three ideal pieces to be sewn in fabrics suitable for sports activities, or revamped for everyday wear.
On the left: structured and contrasted, the 129 top in thick double jersey combines style and protection, ideal for sunny days. It is worn with the shorts 130, featuring clever cut-outs and visible elastic bands. Depending on the fabric chosen, this set is equally suited to a diving session or a bike ride, or it can be slipped under a summer dress.
On the right: our favorite look of the month is the shirt 123 and shorts 122 ensemble in a linen blend. Two refined cuts for men, the pieces are ideal for summer thanks to a linen blend that wrinkles less than pure linen. In elegant beige, this outfit combines comfort and style, and is sure to be a favorite this season.
