1940s Style WWII Sweetheart Neck Dress with Fitted Midriff and Bolero Jacket Custom Made in your Size From a Vintage Pattern 1941

This will be custom made for you using a vintage pattern that is dated 1941. It features an oh-so 1940s sweetheart neckline with a full four gore aline skirt. It has gathers under the front shoulder yoke and at the upper waist. The sleeves can be made short or long. The skirt features a high waisted midriff and an aline swing skirt that can be made with or without a center front inverted plete panel. Your choice of a short or long dress. This one zips on the side and is unlined. The optional bolero jacket is meant to be worn open and has no closures. The sleeves are short and pleated at the caps. The counter catalog pictures show the jacket with trapunto work at the front shoulders. This or maybe appliques here would be lovely! You may choose to order just the dress, just the bolero or the 2pc set. The jacket is fully lined. 

This will be custom made for you to your measurements. Since it is made to order I can make it out of any fabric and color you want. It would work well in cottons, rayon crepe, rayon twill, rayon challis, crepe de chin, satin, gabardine or wool suiting. I can make this in any fabric you want, it is up to you! (100% Silk or 100% wool would be at an additional cost)

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 is made to order so please allow 14+ weeks for delivery.
