1942 Dress. Busts 96 cm or 108 cm (37.8" or 42.5")

Also available as a PDF pattern

A timeless early-1940s design featuring gathered panels on the front bodice and skirt, ideal for contrast colour and fabric-texture blocking. Sleeves are softly gathered at the sleeve head and taper to a slim fit at the forearm. The waist includes a button-front opening, finished with a self-fabric belt worn on top. The A-line skirt is completed with an inverted centre-back pleat for added shape and movement.
