IMPORTANT NOTE

A solid understanding of vintage garment construction is highly recommended.

The original source materials from which these early patterns are reproduced provide significantly less instruction than patterns from the 1920s and 1930s. Designers at the time assumed that the home seamstress had the skills to construct garments without detailed directions.

As a result, you may find:

Missing facings or linings
No instructions for creating trims or closures
Incomplete or nonexistent construction guidance

Please also note:

These patterns run small by modern sizing standards.
They were designed to be worn with appropriate undergarments and corsets.
A fitting mock-up (toile) made from muslin or other test fabric is essential for personalizing the fit before cutting your final fabric.

Patterns are reproduced directly from the original materials to maintain historical accuracy—no alterations have been made.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND

This is an exact reproduction of the original vintage pattern and may include formatting errors or minor miscalculations present in the original.

While I have sewn some of these patterns myself, I have not tested every single one and cannot guarantee perfect accuracy or fit. Please make a mock-up for fitting before cutting into your final fashion fabric.
