This is a downloadable PDF Sewing Pattern.
The Ascension Soft Bra is my favorite design, probably of all time. When I first started my lingerie line, I had the idea for a bra that looked like a floating triangle within a frame bra, with hidden support! I’m incredibly proud of this beautiful bra.
GARMENT SPECIFICS The Ascension Soft Bra is a self lined bralette with adjustable straps and bold, geometric panels. Two darts are hidden in the diagonal seam lines, which give the bra a beautiful shape, and high crossed straps are super comfortable and supportive. A longline underbust band adds support and pressure distribution.
This pattern is available in both B/C and D/E cups for all sizes XXS to 6X.
Garment can be entirely constructed with a sewing machine, serger/overlocking machine optional. Techniques required include zig zag stitches, pinning + sewing curved seams, and working with elastic.
SUGGESTED FABRICS Knit fabrics with 50-75% stretch, preferably with a spandex content. Bamboo, Rayon, or blends with Cotton, Lycra, Silk, Spandex, Nylon, Tencel. 100% cotton tends to stretch out quickly. Measure stretch by marking out 4” of fabric, then gently stretch to max.
