Men's Costume Patterns
From Prince to villain, hero to saboteur, comic to tragic, men dance an astonishing range of roles. Men's costuming is an integral part of the character they portray, and is always crucial to the overall theme of the performance.
From top to bottom, Ms. Folts' men's costume patterns are designed to enhance and elevate all the various roles that men dance.
Developed over many years of men's costume design and construction, these patterns are the very finest available, and are the same patterns Ms. Folts uses everyday in her own custom designs.
"Men's 'Princely' Ballet Tunic Pattern"
This is a gorgeous pattern, but definitely not a good one for the novice stitcher!
The Tunic hooks up the back, and features an optional peplum. The sleeves are full, with an optional cuff, and are attached to an under-vest to allow freedom of movement.
This is an advanced-level pattern, more difficult than the 'Classic' Tunic (PTCF503), so you really need to know what you are doing!
