I AM CLEOPÂTRE

I am Cléopâtre, a pleated dress and top. I am very comfortable to wear thanks to the pleated fabric which gives me a lot of ease.  My neckline is inspired by Cleopatra’s neck pieces. The pleated fabric delicately swings from my neckline and I feature American armholes. I am both very chic and extremely comfortable.

You will need the original I AM Cléopâtre sewing pattern to sew this version.
