Maison Fauve | LIONESS Top Sewing Pattern

A regal silhouette, defined by effortless femininity… the Lioness top feels like a true second skin. Its beautifully draped cowl neckline and sculpted lines are created by a signature couture technique: the bias cut.

The wide straps ensure all-day comfort and make it easy to wear with a bra. Whether in a plain fabric or a print, it slips into any wardrobe while keeping its distinctive ‘so 90s’ allure.

UK sizes 6–24 (FR 34–52), drafted for a height of 165 cm (5’5”). The finished garment measurement chart is available in the product photos.

Sewing level: INTERMEDIATE. Key techniques include sewing precise corners, applying bias binding at the armholes, and working with bias-cut fabric.

Seam allowances are included and are 1 cm.
