the Vivien bra pattern ( Variation Two: Pattern Booklet and bands pieces )
“Classy with a side order of danger!!”
the Vivien bra was named after Vivien Leigh, as it is designed along an Old Hollywood style, yet the lowered neckline is reminiscent of Scarlett O’Hara in “Gone with the Wind”.
Both Variations are partial band bras, with a lower, balconette style neckline and a side power bar.
This listing is for Variation Two : a variation with a front opening, and a lower, plunge style neckline. For Variation One please see the separate listing on this website. Both listings include the same pattern booklet, as many elements of the construction process translate from one across the other. For this listing you will receive the pattern booklet and the bands pattern pieces for variation two only. The Bands pattern pieces for this listing are in A4 and US Letter form.
Designed to fit those with generous cup volumes, and smaller back frames.
Available in sizes 32A-F to 40A-F
For detailed information on how to assess your size, please see the images to the left, and the general information contained in the listing: Variation One: Pattern booklet and bands. Variation Two can be used as a stand alone product if you wish to purchase Variation Two only. If you have already purchased Variation One, you will have received a discount code to purchase Variation Two at a 50% discount.
The Cups pattern pieces for Variation Two are contained in separate listings as Variation Two: Cups (A4 version) and Variation Two: Cups (US Letter Version)
Your ZIP file contains an extensive 77 page pattern booklet with detailed step by step instructions for both variations, and also appendices for further construction and fitting notes. This file also contained all the pattern pieces for variation two. Pattern pieces are laid out on individual pages, and are available as A4, or US Letter form.
Once downloaded, I suggest viewing and reviewing on your iPad or Laptop, rather than printing out all of the pages. This also allows you to zoom in on the detailed photographs included for each step.
Pattern pieces are clustered together in files based on their sister sizes for the 34 Cup series. Further detailed information on how to find your personal pattern pieces are found within the pattern booklet, and within the accompanying “Super Geeky Wire Chart”. Available cup sister sizes are 34AA too 34I.
I suggest printing out only those pattern pieces that you need, and remember to print at 100% of scale, on your printer for those pattern pieces.
5% of all sales of this pattern will be donated to safesteps.
