See below for a review of this pattern:
"This pattern worked up great... I added some interfacing to the front and back neck edges to help it stay in place... I also lined the bodice instead of the bias strip, this looks much nicer inside. I eliminated the sleeves and bow for a sleek modern look!"

**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.
