Marbella Top-Digital PDF Sewing Pattern

MARBELLA TOP – 15 Sizes (EU 30–58)

Description

The MARBELLA TOP is a feminine and elegant peplum top designed with a flattering V-neckline, gathered bust, and adjustable tie-front detail. The bodice is fully lined for a clean and professional inside finish.

The long, slightly flared sleeves feature gathering at the sleeve cap, creating beautiful volume and a soft puffed effect at the shoulders. A gathered ruffle at the waist, both front and back, creates an elegant peplum silhouette.

The front ties allow the neckline and front opening to be adjusted, while the gathered details and carefully finished sleeves add a feminine and refined touch to the design.

Style Tips

Sew MARBELLA in silk or satin for a sophisticated and elegant look, or choose crepe or voile for a softer, more fluid silhouette. The feminine V-neckline, adjustable tie-front, gathered bust and flowing peplum ruffle make this top easy to style with high-waisted trousers, skirts or jeans.

The long flared sleeves, gathered sleeve caps and peplum waist create a distinctive silhouette that combines feminine details with an elegant and modern look.

Important Note

Before cutting your final fabric, we recommend making a test muslin to check the fit, drape and any necessary adjustments. This can help avoid complicated alterations after cutting your final fabric.

The MARBELLA TOP is an intermediate sewing project (3/5) with an estimated sewing time of approximately 3–4 hours.
