This replicated pattern is sized to fit a 36 inch bust.
From 1929, Loose fitting cover up with long bell sleeves, can be made in a variety of fabrics taking you from casual to elegant. Has a cross over front which can be fastened to the desired point. Photo #4 shows this advertised in The Delineator Magazine, Autumn 1929. See below for a review of this pattern (Thank you Motorharp):
"Instructions pretty easy to follow, with the caveat it's a vintage pattern and pattern publishers assumed a lot of prior sewing knowledge when writing the instructions for the home sewer. There are some parts that are skimmed over - for example, I'm still not entirely sure what they wanted you to do with the front facing if you're lining it. However, there are few pieces so it does go together quickly. I like the tassels on the sleeves and front collar - it gives the robe a nice weight. The sleeves are a little shorter than indicated on the pattern envelope. I would make them a few inches longer if I made this again. For my kimono, I used velvet for the body and silk charmeuse for the sleeves, collar and lining."
