The sky's the limit with this versatile and dynamic bodice from designer Travis Halsey. This bodice has a built-in basque. It would complement many diverse ballets and characters including Swan Lake, Le Corsaire/La Bayadere, Raymonda, Lilac Fairy, Blue Bird, Kitri and many more! Use your creativity and fabric choices to make something soft and beautiful or modern and edgy. You can build it with the bust tabs at the center front, or just a nude very open center front. Please refer to the sizing chart as sizes vary between bodice patterns. Don't forget to add the instruction packet to your cart as well.

Patterns are in PDF format and will open and print to the correct size without any additional adjustment. There is no need to resize anything once you receive your file. There is a 3" reference square on each pattern to double check that the printing scale is correct once printed.
Downloadable patterns are intended for the use of the purchaser only. You are allowed to send your pattern to a printing company for personal use. This website maintains the same legal declaration on digital patterns as paper patterns: reproduction for gift or gain is illegal. You may only reproduce a pattern for your own use.
Any patterns or products purchased from any websites other than rachelfinzen.com that claim to be designed by Rachel Finzen, Travis Halsey, or Halsey Onstage, are illegal or counterfeit. Only this website is authorized to distribute patterns or products created by these entities, and this website is not in collaboration with any other website, tutu supplier, or pattern company.
HELPFUL TIPS AND INFORMATION FOR YOUR DIGITAL FILES:
** No patterns are wider than 36" after printing
** Patterns are in 200 dpi resolution
** Each file includes the width and length of the print in inches
** Patterns do not include step by step instructions. They do include photos, illustrations, and text to aid in the construction process.

You can print from home using the program, Adobe Reader. If you do not have this program, it is a free download available for both PC and Mac computers. Open the pattern file using Adobe Reader, go to "Print," and select "Poster Print." The program will automatically slice your file into as many 8.5x11" sheets of paper as needed to fully print your pattern to scale. Be certain you keep the scale of printing at 100%. Changing the scale will yield an incorrect size. Once printed, arrange the pages and tape them together. If you prefer, you make print your file on a large scale printer at an office supply store instead.
