RH1317 — 1930s day frock and jacket

Description

Get this 1930s Frock and Jacket pattern and have the perfect 30s outfit!

Based on an original pattern from the 1930s, this ladies’ one-piece frock and jacket are the essentials of 30s style.  Blouse has shaped yoke with cascade jabot at front.  Skirt has shaped front and back panels, giving that slim 30’s look.  Blouse joins skirt under buckled belt.  Short- or long-sleeved options included.  Long sleeves gather into shaped cuffs.

Reconstructing History patterns are different from other reproduction patterns!

We don’t just photocopy old patterns and sell them to you.  We use the original patterns as a basis.  Then we grade the pattern in modern sizes, up to 48″ bust and 40″ waist, so they’ll fit far more sizes than the original patterns ever did.  And we don’t just stick you with the old vague instructions either.  Kass personally goes through each pattern, improving the instructions, modernizing the vocabulary and adding in all those things that the old pattern companies assumed their customers knew.  Yet we don’t remove the flavour of the original pattern, so you can truly experience using a vintage pattern without all the trouble of resizing and “translating” it.

All sizes (busts 28″ to 48″) come in the same envelope.  Also included are assembly instructions, embellishment suggestions, and the extensive historical notes you’ve come to expect from Reconstructing History.

Fabric Suggestions:  
silk crepe, chiffon, organdy, georgette, taffeta, voile and other dress weights
