Pattern Pieces

After cutting your fabric, you should have the following pieces:

  • 4 of Number 1, center front pieces mirrored — 2 for shell, 2 for lining
  • 4 of Number 2 mirrored pieces — 2 for shell, 2 for lining
  • 4 of Number 3 mirrored pieces — 2 for shell, 2 for lining
  • 4 of Number 4 mirrored pieces — 2 for shell, 2 for lining
  • 4 of Number 5 mirrored pieces — 2 for shell, 2 for lining
  • 4 of Number 6, center back pieces mirrored — 2 for shell, 2 for lining

Note: Depending on your fabric type, you may not need to add lining. If you're using faux leather or a thicker fabric, it's harder to add a lining. In that case, you can use only the shell fabric and either serge or apply a rolled hem to finish exposed edges.

First Pieces

Gather one side of the number 1 and number 2 pieces. Stack them together, right sides facing each other, and sew them together using a straight stitch along the bust curve edge.

Then repeat for sewing the number 2 to 3, 3 to 4, 4 to 5, and 5 to 6 pieces.

Repeat for the opposite side and the lining pieces, creating 4 side panels.

Sewing the Shell

Gather both sides of the shell fabric pieces. Stack them right sides together and sew them along the center back, piece number 6 edge.

You should then have one entire bustier piece with an open front.

Then repeat for the lining sides, sewing along the center back 6 edge.

Sewing the Zipper

Gather your separating zipper, unzip the pieces, and flip them over to the wrong side.

Gather your shell bustier, and along the center front edge, align one side of the separating zipper to that edge. Then sew the zipper down using a straight stitch.

After that, you can layer over the lining, right sides facing the shell, and sew over that same edge. You can also stack all layers with the zipper in between and just sew once.

Then repeat for the opposite front side zipper.

Note: You do not need to install a zipper — you can try eyelets and grommets instead for a lace-up effect, or even snaps. However, for snaps, you may need to add excess fabric to allow for overlap in this area.

Sewing the Shell and Lining

Next, sew the shell and lining together along the top edge of the bustier.

Then sew along the bottom edge, except you must leave an unsewn gap at the bottom to allow you to flip the garment right side out. You can leave this gap wherever you wish — along the center back or even the side panels — but it must be large enough to flip everything through.

Once sewn, before flipping, you can trim off excess seam fabric along the corners to allow for sharp corners.

Finish the Garment

Flip the garment right side out and fold inward the unsewn gap, then topstitch it closed.

You will also want to topstitch the front zipper sides.
