Summer Halter Top and Shorts Set

This two-piece pattern brings together a halter neck top and a pair of high-waisted shorts for a coordinated summer look. The halter neckline keeps the shoulders bare and draws attention to the collarbone, while the raised waistline of the shorts sits neatly against the top for a balanced silhouette. The pieces can be sewn as a matching set or made separately and worn with other items already in the wardrobe.

Light and mid-weight woven fabrics work well here, with cotton poplin, linen blends and chambray giving the top shape and the shorts enough body to hold their waistline. Choose a crisp solid for a clean, modern finish or a small print for something more playful. The set suits warm days, holidays, garden gatherings and relaxed evenings out, and layers easily under an open shirt or light jacket when the temperature drops.

Sizes run from XS to 5XL (XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL). The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on A4 paper, and it also includes an A0 file for printing at a copy shop. Each size is a separate file, so you print only the size you need.
