Diabolo Fauve: the most sparkling of the summer collections!
The Fauve Romance continues in a joyful and naive atmosphere, it stops off in a tangy universe: the Diabolo Fauve capsule gives pride of place to colors and materials!
Our new fabric collection borrows from the carefree 60s its range of pastel colors: Mint, Lemon Yellow, Soft Pink, which are awakened by Sulphur Yellow and Ultra Orange.
New couture box, exclusive prints, arrival of the softest jacquard, new color of our 100% cotton gabardine, and a new material never before seen at Maison Fauve, here we go for the presentation of the Diablo Fauve capsule!
The Malibu Couture Box
A new Maison Fauve sewing box marked the arrival of both a new sewing pattern and new fabrics.
The Malibu polo shirt
Fauve Romance's sporty-chic mood couldn't do without a pretty summer polo shirt: with its reworked volume (lowered shoulder line, straight and slightly cropped cut), the Malibu polo shirt borrows from the studied nonchalance of the elegant ladies of the Roaring Twenties who would meet at the clubhouse to hit a few balls and sip a Martini. Its collar and polo placket have the right proportions, and you can wear Malibu buttoned or half-open. Available with elbow-length sleeves or sleeveless, it will follow your style desires according to your choice of fabric.

Berlingot poly viscose veil
Berlingot striped poly viscose sails
This new 83% viscose and 17% polyamide fabric, made in France, is very pleasant to sew and wear: light, perfect for summer, it has a slight transparency but this will not pose any problem for sewing tops, blouses, shirts ... And the most adorable polo shirts! Its surface is very slightly relief, as if embossed. Its wide acidulous stripes are available in Romance Pink, Mint Green, Fizz Yellow and Ink Blue.

The Malibu polo couture box, 4 colors
In your sewing kit, you will find the Malibu pouch pattern, the Berlingot fabric in the color of your choice and the white cotton voile, 3 pretty Wink Mat É cru buttons and all the haberdashery (iron-on adhesive, thread, Microtex needle set) to sew your pretty polo shirt. AND of course, we provide you with a free step-by-step video to help you sew your garment.
The Solaris print
My inspirations for the patterns in this collection leaned towards abstract art and more specifically "gradient art" which plays on blurs and color. Mixing Rothko's canvases and the tones of Georgia O Keefe's paintings, our Solaris print comes in 3 colors:
-
Pastel: a range of very soft tones, like an impressionist sky.
-
Confetti: This print makes me feel like I'm blinking at a field of vibrantly colored wildflowers.
-
Ultra Orange: we play on the solarization of colors, here the tones are intense, the orange burns and the touches of turquoise green add relief.
Our prints are made in Portugal, printed on a soft viscose poplin. They will be perfect for sewing tops, blouses, and pretty dresses.

Pastel jacquard
I love our new jacquard to bits: it's so soft, easy to sew, woven in France and stunningly beautiful with its large abstract flowers in cotton candy colours. I used it on my Métropolis jacket (I'm also passionate about that...) and Julie is wearing the Cosmopolitan playsuit sewn in this beautiful fabric.

Lyocell laminated fabrics
This material is THE big new product in the Diabolo Fauve capsule: a twill fabric with a moiré finish, tone-on-tone lamé. Medium weight, I had fun using it in a very cute little set: Dandelion jacket and Grand Bain shorts, but it can also be used to sew blouses, tops and even lightweight pants like the Belem sewing pattern .
It is available (for the moment ;) ) in Mint Green and Sulfide Yellow.

Raw cotton gabardine
After the flashes of Sulfide Yellow and the softness of Smoky Blue, 100% cotton gabardine returns in Greige: a slightly cold, very elegant sand tone for timeless sewing.
We offer you all the haberdashery for sewing new colors: thread, fly, but also our brand new Poppy Greige buttons on a light gold base.
Perfect for sewing jackets, shorts, and pants or jeans, I present to you here this new color with the Hussard pants pattern and I have a future Tigris trench coat in the pipeline that I can't wait to show you!
