Vintage Scalloped Detachable Collar with Bow Tie

This detachable collar brings a vintage touch to almost any outfit. Designed for women, it features a decorative scalloped edge along the outer curve and a sweet tie bow at the centre front, so it can be worn fastened neatly or left softly knotted. Because it is a separate accessory rather than part of a garment, it can be layered over dresses, knitwear and plain tops to change the mood of a look in seconds.

Light, crisp fabrics suit this style best, such as cotton lawn, poplin, batiste, broderie anglaise or fine linen, while a touch of lace or a soft satin gives a dressier result. Wear it for work, for a weekend brunch, for holiday gatherings, or whenever a plain neckline needs a little definition.

The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on A4 paper, with a combined US Letter / A4 file as well, and it also includes an A0 file for printing at a copy shop. All pieces are in one file.
