1930s Style Cowl Neck Dropped Waist Dress Custom Made in Your Size From a Vintage Pattern 1931
McCall 6556
$285.00
This dress will be custom made for you in your size using a vintage pattern that is dated 1931. It features a unique cowl 'scarf' neckline and a dropped waist bodice. Your choice of plain long sleeves with or without decorative side cuff or short ruffled sleeves. The skirt is full and long. Closes on the sides, comes with a belt. The original pattern calls for a snap closure along the side seam but I can use a zipper instead if you prefer.
Please note that since this pattern is from the early 1930s, it will not fit like a modern garment. It is left a bit loose at the front waist where it is supposed to have a bloused effect when worn the belt. The pattern is made to fit a good 2" larger at the waist than your actual waist measurement, yet fitted at the bust and hips. This is typical of most pre 1933 styles.
This dress will be custom made for you to your measurements. This would work great in several fabrics such as summer weight cotton lawn, quilt weight cottons, chiffon or georgette. It would also work in thicker fabrics such as rayon crepe, wool crepe or satin crepe. However I can make this in any fabric you want, it is up to you!
Prices incude a budget of $12 per yard fabric max. If you want a more expensive fabric there will be an additional cost. Unsure about fabric and the total costs? Message me and we can discuss.
I will message you after the order is made and give you a list of measurements I will need to make your dream dress.
This dress is made to order so please allow 14+ weeks for delivery.
