'I've made the entire ensemble and the tunic twice, once in silk velvet. The tunic is the easiest thing to make and I used bias to finish all edges in one as a contrast and absolutely stunning. The other dress is a little more complicated especially the inset and I think it would've been better with the inset lined although the instructions don't say. I also found the pattern to be a little bigger than other 36" patterns, especially the coat. But it is stunning with a contrast collar and cuffs.'
"I found this pattern went together easily. The fabric requirements are accurate and the directions clear and precise. I made the tunic in view 3. There is a under dress shown in the rendering but there is no pattern included for it. The neckline is not as pictured, as it shows a deep V that looks like it hits just below the midriff, but it was actually about even with my bust line, and instead of ending in a point, the neckline ends more like the neckline in the dress in view 1. I made it up in a linen and probably would have had better results if I had used a fabric with more drape like a rayon or wool challis. Overall, I was happy with the results and I will make it again using a different fabric."

**PLEASE KEEP IN MIND**
This is an exact copy of the original vintage pattern and as such may retain any original errors or miscalculations in formatting native to the original pattern. While I have made up some of these patterns, I have not tested them all out and cannot attest to their accuracy or perfect fit. As with all garment construction, it is best to make a mock-up for fitting in test fabric prior to cutting and constructing with your final fashion fabric.
