We saw the sheer trend in full-swing last spring and well into the fall, but now it looks like it’s not slowing down for 2021. From huge puff sleeves over tanks or bra tops to full-on flouncy dresses, let’s take a look at some free sewing patterns that can be easily used to add some sheer garments to your wardrobe this year.

Tops are a great option for the sheer trend as they can be worn over a decorative bra or tank. Try the Camellia Blouse in a fully sheer tulle as we did here or an only slightly translucent voile like the original.
Want to try the sheer trend with a bit more modesty? The Flora Blouse is the perfect pick for a sheer yoke!

Thanks so much for all your free patternsǃ Would you consider releasing a basic knit tank top pattern? Thanks againǃ
Hi, Katherine! Are you thinking something like our Marigold Cami or Molina Tunic, or something different? 🙂
I was actually looking for something with a basic knit–maybe something like the Molina, but a little more fitted, designed for a knit? I have the Marigold on my list, but I haven’t gotten to make it yet!
Gotcha – I’ll definitely keep it in mind when we plan new patterns! We can always use more basics. 😀
Amazing
Bundle of thanks for sharing
