Taylor Racerback
Have you been seeing the gathered racerback trend happening? This is the pattern you need for that! The 5oo4 Taylor racerback has top and dress lengths, gathered and regular backs.
For this version I did the regular back in DBP from Elevated Fashion Fabrics. XL graded to 2XL
Edit to add:
A year down the road I decided that I wanted something with a strappy back. I’ve never made something like that so I went through my patterns and realized the Taylor would be really easy to hack!
I just removed the yoke off the non-gathered back and the shoulder extension on the front and replaced them with tabs to attach a strap to. I didn’t even finish the straps, just twisted and attached!
