Garment Details: The SPARKLE shirt plays with the rhythm of striped, sheer fabric. The bodice has doubled fabric for full coverage and the upper part and sleeves are light, with only one layer of the sheer knit. The design invites you to experience layering sheer jerseys. The pattern comes in two different sleeve variations, and you can easily hack it to make a T-shirt for the warmer spring days.
Designer: Kaisa Rissanen, the cofounder of TAUKo magazine, lives in Helsinki, Finland, in a cute yet small apartment with her family. At the moment, she is intrigued to organize her wardrobe around a few fundamental pieces that serve different purposes. Kaisa loves to be surrounded by beauty, but her aesthetic is usually defined by “less is more”.
