The ALBA SET can easily be adapted to different seasons depending on your fabric choice. Linen creates a lighter and more breathable version for warm weather, while gabardine or lightweight tweed gives the set a more structured appearance suitable for transitional seasons.

Style Tips
Sew ALBA in linen for a fresh and elegant warm-weather look, or choose gabardine or lightweight tweed for a more structured and sophisticated silhouette.
The cropped top can be styled with high-waisted trousers, jeans, or other skirts, while the fitted high-waisted skirt can easily be paired with a blouse, knit top, or jacket.
Wear both pieces together for a polished co-ord set with a modern tailored aesthetic. The combination of the tailored collar, cropped silhouette, fitted waist, and straight skirt creates a feminine and refined look suitable for many occasions.
Important Note
Before cutting your final fabric, we recommend making a test muslin to check the fit and make any necessary adjustments. This can help avoid complicated alterations after cutting your final fabric.
The ALBA SET is an intermediate sewing project (2/5) with an estimated sewing time of approximately 6–8 hours.
