As part of an ongoing project of mine, I will be sharing pattern covers from my collection for research and design purposes. It is hoped that by posting these online, designers, collectors of vintage fashion, sewing patterns and periodicals may be able to use this information for dating apparel, photos and garments. The cover illustrations also provide examples of how this garment style would have been worn in its day, complete with accessories, makeup and hair style. <br /><br />BACK INFORMATION <br /><br />One-piece dress and coat in women's sizes and misses' and women's half-sizes: <br />Sleeveless dress with slightly lowered round neckline and back zipper has an A-line skirt.
