The Maite sewing pattern includes two variations: a chic tunic, and an elegant maxi dress. Both feature raglan sleeves, a straight cut, and a delicate belt at the waist. The tunic has an O-neck, fastening with ties, straight ¾-length sleeves, and side slits. The dress comes with a V-neck, long puff sleeves, smart side pockets, and fastening with shank buttons.
