Style description:
You do not have to choose between style and comfort. Carlotta jumpsuit and playsuit have a wrap front bodice and a wide elasticated waist and drawstring, which defines an otherwise relaxed fit. Variation A, which is a jumpsuit features dropped shoulders and relaxed fit sleeves and pants that are slightly tapered on the hem. Variation B, which is a playsuit, features a dropped armhole that is slightly elasticated and has a mid-thigh length hem, perfect for the warm days of summer. Due to the stretch fabric, elasticated waist and wrap neckline, it is easy to get in and out of without additional fastenings or ties. Carlotta is a versatile jumpsuit for casual wear at home, out running errands or an evening out, depending on your fabric choice. One of the testers described it as a t-shirt for the full body and another made it in sequins for the nights out.
Fabric recommendation:
Light to medium weight stretch fabrics with a drape is ideal for this pattern. Choose fabrics that stretch four ways (at least 20%) and also have a good recovery. Stretch velour, velvet, jersey types, ribbing are some examples. You might need additional stretch lining fabric for the pocket and waistband facing if the main fabric you chose is thick or has a nap, which can create bulk when layered.
Skill level:
Intermediate. Working with foldover or clear elastic to finish the edges and waistband elastic tunnel can be challenging for beginners.
Measurements and Seam allowances:
This pattern includes measurements in Metric and Imperial systems in all files. Seam allowances are 1cm (3/8") for all seams unless marked otherwise on the pattern for the particular seam or hem.

Hi, I am Nafisa. I am a Technical Designer and a Garment Engineer by day. I have 10+ years of experience working alongside high-end fashion designers creating their collections and red carpet ensembles. Many people who have work experience like me, end up having their own luxury fashion label at some point. But this was never a goal for me. I dreamed of helping other people to achieve their creative potential, rather than buying ready-made clothes I would make. And I decided to bring the aesthetic level, fit quality and finesse of the industry to the hobby sewists.
I love seeing your take on my pattern designs; whether it is a fabric choice or a hack. So please tag me and use hashtags in the instructions sheet when you share your makes on social media. I try to make very clear step by step instructions for each pattern using either diagrams or photos, depending on what would be easier to understand. Additionally, I make video tutorials for some of the patterns which you can find on my Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIXUHAZ5dEHtknaaF8IulnA Let's get to know each other better @capsule.patterns
