What we love: The asymmetrical draped V-neckline beautifully enhances the bust.

The Grace bodysuit is inspired by 80s cuts and pays homage to Grace Jones. Androgynous and sensual, this queen of the dancefloor is a fashion icon and an idol for many female artists.
 

It's a simple design that owes all its originality to its crossed drape on the front. Four gathered fabric panels criss-cross and enhance the bust with a lovely V-neckline. Its sleeves are straight and simple. The back is a single piece. The bodysuit is available as a brief or thong, with or without an opening at the crotch. 

It's a fairly easy model to make, but it requires concentration for the asymmetrical draping step.

An overlocker is not essential; you can also sew it with a sewing machine.

 

What you will need
  • Bi-stretch knit fabric with at least 50% stretch:
    120cm by 150cm wide for sizes 32 to 38

  • 100% cotton knit fabric (cotton jersey) for the gusset: 30 x 30cm
  • Matching thread (200m spool)
  • 3m of 6 to 10mm elastic tape (lastin)

The perfect fabrics

Light to medium knit fabric:

We envision it in our heavy Pia jersey, for a very feminine summer version!
