A beige tulle is embroidered with bold orange, purple and green flowers, matching the plain bright orange bra tulle. To accompany is a navy stretch mesh and pink powernet.

My mods and match-ups ~ The Watson bra:The Hepburn kit

My version: The Watson looks great kept simple and basic but I made a few style alterations to my set to take it next level.
It's easy to make a matching set with the Watson. Both a bra and bikini brief are included in this pattern and both require approx. a 75% stretch, knit fabric. This pattern is a great place to start as a beginner!
