The ADELE boutonnière is a decorative accessory that adds character to your everyday outfits. Though traditionally worn by men, the boutonnière offers a way to make a style statement and add a touch of creativity and charm to any wardrobe. This is the perfect project for beginners, enabling you to put your fabric scraps to good use. Spread some joy by gifting a friend a handmade rose!

Attach ADELE to structured garments such as jackets or coats, or to woven fabrics, and it will hold its shape and stay in place thanks to discreet pins. Delicate knits are less suitable, as the flower needs a solid base to support it.
