Folkwear Patterns Paper Sewing Pattern Tibetan Chupa Skirt & Dress

This wrapped jumper has a centuries long history in Tibet. The Chupa features an asymmetrical wrap front, wide neckband, and simple faced armholes. Both the Chupa and Chupa inspired skirt have unique side extensions that wrap around the back to tie in front. The resulting silhouette is slim, yet the extensions enable enough leg room to make walking easier than most wrap skirts. Suggested fabrics: Medium weight cottons and blends such as denim, corduroy, velveteen, and poplin; medium weight linen; medium weight wool such as flannel, gabardine, and tweeds; medium weight silk such as noil or tussah.
