Easily transform a traditional sleeveless tutu bodice into a beautifully proportioned sleeved version—without compromising fit, function, or line.

Whether you're updating a costume for a new variation, repurposing an older tutu, or simply exploring new design options, our Add a Sleeve pattern makes it simple.

Designed specifically for traditional bodices, this pattern lets you add sleeves without altering the clean, high underarm line essential for movement and aesthetics.

Includes options for: 

  • Straps,  for any set in sleeve.
  • "Tabs" to anchor off-the-shoulder sleeves, frills, or drapes
  • Optional front chemise inset.  

SLEEVE PATTERNS NOT INCLUDED. See our large selection of sleeve patterns under "accessories" 

INSTRUCTIONS:  AVAILABLE SEPARATELY

Our detailed 8-page instructions includes:

• Technical, step-by-step instructions
• Clear photographs
• Guidance on why this method preserves range of motion and silhouette

Avoid common issues such as:
• Awkward pulling when sleeves are added to bodices not designed for them
• Boxy shapes caused by raising side seams too high

Prefer a visual guide? Our easy-to-follow VIDEO INSTRUCTIONS (available with INSTRUCTIONS) will walk you through each step and complement the written instructions perfectly.
