See below for a review of this pattern:
"This slip only has two basic pieces, a front and a back, plus two straps, so this would be a great place to start if you are a little wary of vintage patterns! VPLL has added very clear markings and I love that I can make my own slips in whatever color and fabric I like. I purchased a beautiful slip at a warehouse sale - I loved the fabric and the price was right, but the fit was bizarre. So I took the darn thing completely apart and made myself a slip using this pattern for a MUCH BETTER Fit! The pattern does not suggest a specific way to finish the neckline. For my version, I used a self-fabric bias binding to encase the edges. I also hand rolled the hem. I love this pattern, and will probably make a few more"
