1. Simple drop blouse from free pattern

Let's start by cutting a simple blouse with a length difference (blouse photo 1).

Owners of modest parameters and sizes can use any pattern of an extended silhouette T-shirt.

We start by defining the maximum and minimum length values ​​(picture 1).

Having marked them, we smoothly draw the line of the bottom and an arbitrary expansion.

In this case, it should be borne in mind that the length of the side seam of the back and the side seam of the shelf must be the same.

It is desirable to leave the middle seam for reasons of economy (picture 2), since the most economical layout when cutting this blouse is “jack”.

Of course, in such products it is not necessary that the middle seam repeats the curves of the figure, it is enough to draw it with an arbitrary concave line.

The processing of the blouse is completely the same as dress tailoring technology "trapeze-shirt with a tuck" (the description is supplemented with links to video tutorials on sewing).

Using this link above, you can also download a ready-made pattern for sizes from 42 to 52 or from 52 to 62 (for a fee - 123 rubles). Description of tailoring with explanatory pictures for free.

2. A-line dress with a small slit or fastening in front according to the same free pattern

And here is a trapeze dress with a small slit or fastener in front (Photo 2) will only have a facing of a different shape, but otherwise it will completely repeat the model taken as a basis (picture 3).

In a word, the width of the facing of the shelf should be 3-4 cm more than the length of the cut.

If the cut (clasp) is not drop-shaped, then it should be cut after turning.
