Paloma,
our first bodysuit
One common base, three necklines, a neckline slit adjustable as you wish. The feminine essential you wear from morning to night, and keep reinventing.
This is a first at ikatee: here is Paloma, our very first women’s bodysuit pattern. Designed as a wardrobe essential, it comes in three neckline options on one and the same base.
High collar, round neckline, or low neckline: the choice is yours. Added to this is our favorite detail, a front slit that you adjust as you like to get the neckline that suits you. In short or long sleeves, worn with high-waisted jeans, wide pants, a flowing skirt, or under an oversized blazer, Paloma adapts to all styles.
The model’s signature
One base, three necklines,
an infinite number of styles
It all starts from a unique pattern that you dress according to your mood of the day. Each neckline completely reshapes the piece: sleek and graphic in the morning, more feminine in the evening.
Three looks for one pattern
From the most covering high collar to the most daring neckline, Paloma reinvents itself without ever changing its base. Just one pattern to master, and a whole wardrobe to create.
The favorite detail
The neckline slit, adjustable as you wish
With its front slit option, Paloma plays the femininity card while remaining easy to wear. Adjust the opening as you wish: a discreet neckline for everyday, more pronounced for a special occasion.
An elegant and adjustable detail that makes the model unique — turning a basic piece into one you want to wear every day.
Why sew Paloma
A design process
designed for a perfect fit
What makes Paloma truly unique is all the care given to comfort. Its pattern has been designed to hug shapes without compressing, offer pleasant support, and flatter all body types.
All body types
All technical details have been carefully worked on so that Paloma adapts to everyone, without squeezing and with comfortable support.
Underwear compatible
The necklines and the shape of the panties are designed to remain compatible with everyday underwear.
Considered comfort
The crotch opening has been thoughtfully placed to avoid any discomfort, for a bodysuit you forget you’re wearing once on.
Perfect finishes
The neckline designs highlight different busts, and the finishes rival those of ready-to-wear.
Which fabrics to sew Paloma?
The bodysuit is sewn in knit

Riviera
Viscose jersey printed in France, a soft and fluid knit, cool to the touch.
