This 1938 reproduction sewing pattern features a Misses' and women's dress, utterly feminine and lovely, this dress has the soft gathered bodice and snug waist yoke that is so good for the figure. The neckline is a low V; skirt is slightly flared. Style 1 has buttons and a sash trimming the yoke, long sleeves. Style 2 has short sleeves and is shown with an optional belt.

See below for a review of this pattern:
"The sleeves on this frock were a dream to put in. I loved the darts in the sleeve head. All the points lined up and the instructions were very clear. Altogether a fun and remarkably easy pattern. I had a moment of panic doing the collar, but it's a very clever way to do a self facing. I didn't understand the little rabbit ear that formed the collar back because I had never encountered anything like it before. Once I joined the shoulder seams it was easy."

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.
