This PDF is for a replicated pattern sized to fit a 36 inch bust. This 1892 replicated pattern features a shapely basque originally modeled in dark-green cloth with black Astrakhan trim. Front has double bust darts, under-arm and side back gores and a curving center seam which is discontinued to form a shallow vent. The right front laps upon the left, and the closing is made with buttons along the left shoulder seam and arm's-eye edge and in a pretty curved fashion from the arm's-eye to the lower edge along the second dart. Basque arches over the hips; the back is extended to from narrow coattails. Collar closes at the left shoulder seam. Collar shown in photo #4 is not part of this pattern.

This Butterick pattern was originally created by Dec. 30, 1900 and has been re-digitized into it's current format.

IMPORTANT NOTE: SOLID UNDERSTANDING OF VINTAGE GARMENT CONSTRUCTION IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. The source material from which these early patterns are replicated contain much less information than the more modern patterns from the 1920's and 1930's. Patterns and fashion journals published during these eras presumed that the home seamstress possessed sufficient skills to construct a garment without detailed directions. As a result, patterns for facings, linings and other details - such as instructions on how to create trims, are sketchy at best -- and usually non-existent. Be aware that all of these patterns run small compared to our modern bodies, and were drafted with the understanding that "proper" undergarments and corsets would be worn underneath. Armholes especially tend to be much tighter and higher than modern garments. It is very important when sewing these items to make a fitting mock-up of the pattern out of muslin or other waste fabric, and make all of the adjustments for your individual figure on the mock-up. Our patterns include seam allowances, grain lines and updated text for ease of construction. Patterns are reproduced directly from the original source material, with no changes in order to retain the historical accuracy of the pattern. Prior sewing experience and knowledge of working with vintage patterns is recommended. , then and under your receipt, . 1579673200
