See below for a review of this pattern:
"Five stars from 'seamstress and vintage fashion specialist' - This is a simple but beautiful dress. I made the collar the vintage way which is using only one layer of sheer fabric. Any mistakes turning the lace under to finish the edge will result in bad stretching when pulling the stitching out. If you are going to use just the one layer of fabric (rather than two with the lace in between and then turning them) it might be wise to experiment first so that the collar is stretch free."

**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.
