Boys vs girls: The same patterns, different looks
Poppy meets Pommé edition 27 is filled with inspiring sewing patterns for both boys and girls. Beyond clearly styled designs, this edition also features several versatile patterns that work beautifully for both. Rather than fitting into a specific category, this pattern allows you to shape the garment through fabric choice, details and personal style.
Sewing is ultimately about freedom and creativity. A strong pattern is not defined by who it is traditionally “for”, but by how you interpret it. Fabric choice, colour palette and finishing details have the power to completely transform a garment. The same silhouette can feel sporty and cool, soft and playful, or clean and minimal. That flexibility is what turns certain designs into true wardrobe staples.
Sweater Bo
When made in a bold colour or a structured, sporty fabric, Sweater Bo takes on a cool and confident look. Paired with jeans or casual trousers, it becomes an effortless everyday essential. Choose a softer shade, a textured knit or even a subtle print, and the same pattern transforms into a more playful or refined piece. Styled with a skirt or layered over a dress, it gains a completely different character. The structured yet minimal design allows you to shape the identity of the garment entirely through fabric and styling choices.
Sweater Bo proves that a well-designed basic can adapt to any wardrobe. It’s not the pattern that defines the look, but the creative decisions behind it.
Jack Jessy
Jack Jessy stands out for its refined yet uncomplicated silhouette. Designed to suit both boys and girls, the pattern offers a strong foundation for creative interpretation. The final look is largely defined by the materials and details you choose. A structured fabric creates a more tailored appearance, while softer qualities result in a relaxed and casual style.
Made in a bold, durable fabric with practical accents, Jacket Indi becomes a cool and functional jacket that boys will love. Think deeper colours, contrast details or sporty trims for a more adventurous feel.
Opt for a softer tone, a playful print or lighter textures, and the same design turns into a charming and expressive piece that suits girls perfectly. The balanced silhouette ensures the jacket remains modern and wearable, regardless of how you style it.
Because of its neutral base design, Jack Jessy allows creativity to take centre stage. It doesn’t dictate who should wear it. Instead, it offers a foundation that you can shape to reflect individual style and preference.
