My White Chiffon Maternity Tunic

Im planning to join the "One Pattern Many Looks" contest that currently running at PatternReview.com. Because i love the previous maternity tunic so much, i decide to stick with that pattern. So, here we go, another maternity tunic, this time with white chiffon, fully-lined.

:: Not so flattering front-view ::
I treat the chiffon fabric & lining as one-piece on the upper part, and seperate pieces for the lower part (except on the empire line & shirring part). Not very easy to do, im just experinmenting with this method, and looks ok to me.

What i hate? The shirring looks very bulky because of the double layers of fabrics. And looks very messy escpecially the shirring on the empire line seam. Perharps, this garment/pattern is not suitable to be lined.

:: Pattern pieces ::

I use plain white chiffon as the fashion fabric and plain white satin as the lining. Same like previous tunic, I use Burda Style Magazine, 05-2010, pattern no. 104 and made some changes; I omit the sleeve band, lengthen the hemline for about 2 cm, raised the neckline and raise the armholes. This time i didnt reduced the shirring lines. Read my pattern review.

Next, im planning to make another similar tunic, with cotton fabric. See ya! :)
