This dress will be custom made for you in your size using a vintage pattern that dates to 1922. Can't you just see this being a dress worn by one of the lovely ladies on the set of the early seasons of Downton Abbey or Mr. Selfridge? This is a very basic day dress. Your choice of View A - features a scoop/boat neck raglan sleeve dress with a peter pan collar. It calls for a drop waist elastic casing (yes, elastic!) at the drop waist or a draw string. View C has a more traditional higher neckline with a collar. It buttons at the back neck. This dress is sheath dress style, all in one. It has welt pockets. Your choice of short or long sleeves with cuffs. This would be lovely with added trims like lace along the collar, cuffs, ruffles or ribbon on the skirt or even appliques as the illustration shows on the lower bodice. It is unlined and comes with a sash belt.
