The Swing Top is a loose fitting top with dropped shoulders, a Henley neck and button placket. It also features a shirt tail front and cropped back, gathered into the back yoke. We have paired it with 101 trousers in the picture, but it also pairs beautifully with our Eve trousers or Heroine jeans because of the high waist.

This is a style that used to be available in our RTW collection 3 years ago, and we’ve made it a pattern as so many of you wanted to make your own!

Please note the sizing is different to normal, it is grouped into XS (6), S (8 – 10), M (12 – 14), L (16 -18).

All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless otherwise stated.

Skill level – intermediate.

This is a multi-size PDF pattern. This PDF gives you the tiled (23 x A4 pages) and A0 (copy shop) versions. The tiled version is compatible with US letter paper. 

We would suggest using the following fabrics – lighter weight woven fabrics, linen and linen blends, cotton chambray, Indian handweaves and block prints, tencel and tencel blends. The more structured the fabric the more sculptural your top will look.

The linens pictured are Goodnight 185 and Milk 185. Eve wears a size small.
