Advanced Sewing Skill Recommended

This listing is for an E-Pattern to print yourself at home on your home printer's USA letter and A4 sized paper. This also includes A0 size for copy shop printing.

This is a large pattern and uses a lot of paper- please read details below.


--- DESCRIPTION ---

This very glamorous evening dress dates to the first half of the 1930s. The height of Art Deco elegance, this gown has a beautiful capelet, a mostly open back, a double-tiered peplum at front and back, and a graceful fitted skirt with center front and center back slits. The dress opens at the side seam and ties at the back neck. Ready for your silver screen debut!

--- DIFFICULTY ---

Advanced difficulty. This pattern includes the original period instructions, which are very minimal. You may wish to have a sewing book handy for detailed techniques. There are a few notes from Wearing History for checkpoints for fit and construction. To make this pattern you should be able to sew a gown with little to no instruction.

--- SIZE CHART INCLUDED IN PHOTOS ---

Pattern sizing is JUNIOR SIZE. Misses, Women’s, Plus Size, and Petites may require adjustment.
Please note that sizes 19, 21, 23 were not originally made in this pattern and have been added.

Yardages are from the period original and should be tested in the mock up phase to check accuracy.

Only a size chart for size 13 is included, as that was the pattern size this pattern is based on.

--- YARDAGE REQUIREMENTS ---
Please see photos. Yardages are an estimate from the period original and should be tested in the mock up phase.
