Edwardian Suit Dress RARE Sewing Pattern 1919

Antiques : Sewing Patterns

 

Especially for you from Toinette's! RARE and so wonderful to find an ORIGINAL antique sewing pattern dated 1919. This is a wonderful pattern and certainly one for an avid collector. From the Edwardian era of graceful clothing. Sizes given on this pattern are for bust 34, waist not given / hip 36 inches.

This one piece dress is made in SUIT EFFECT. The back is cut all in one piece and wraps around to close double breasted below the natural waistline. The bodice is cut with a LONG diagonal silhouette. The slashed collar follows this elegant line all the way down to the double buttons. The back is belted. The set in sleeves are slim cut. There are small horizontal pockets at the side of one breast and at the opposite hip. The hemline finishes just at the ankle.

Fabric suggestions on the pattern envelope are: soft twills, rep cloth, Kasha, Fine worsteds, wool crepe, flannel, hairline stripes, checks, plaids, silk alpaca. This would make up beautifully in gabardine, modern blends and even polyester.

This is an ORIGINAL unprinted pattern that includes the DELTOR, or instruction page. The envelope is dated 1919; and again 1923 reflecting the dates the pattern was offered for sale. Minor wear to this pattern. There may be pin marks on the tissue pieces. Condition is EXCELLENT. Please remember this is an ORIGINAL pattern.

The envelope shows minor wear. Shipping is $2.00 for regular mail with delivery confirmation in the USA. International s/h is $4.00. Insurance is always recommended / not paid by seller.

All of my sewing patterns are AUTHENTIC no copies are offered at Toinette's. I specialize in hard to find ERAS and sizes.
