WHAT YOU GET
- Instructions in English (12 pages A4): sizing, yardage, cutting layouts, step-by-step sewing of the kameez, the salwar and the dupatta, with diagrams

- A0 bonus file: the salwar crotch curves (all sizes) and the facings at full size, for a copy shop
- 9 pattern pieces in total
- Seam allowances included everywhere: nothing to add
THE OUTFIT
- Kameez: long tunic with dropped shoulders, long sleeves, side slits and a round neckline opening on a 12 cm keyhole slit, finished with a facing and a small button
- Salwar: full trousers with a low crotch, an elastic waist and the legs gathered into 6 cm cuffs
- Dupatta: a long light scarf, worn over the shoulders or the head (3 ways to wear it explained)
- Easy variations: drawstring waist, short kurta, straight trousers
SIZES S - M - L - XL
Bust 84-118 cm | Waist 66-100 cm | Hips 90-124 cm
The bust decides the size of the kameez, the hips the size of the salwar: you can cut them in two different sizes. A full size chart and finished garment measurements are included.
PATTERN TYPE
Hybrid pattern: the neckline and its facings print at full size; the kameez, sleeves, salwar legs, cuffs and dupatta are simple shapes you draft on kraft paper with the measurements provided. The A0 file gives the salwar legs at full size if you prefer.
LEVEL AND TIME
Intermediate. About 6 to 8 hours for the three pieces.
